Everyone looks forward to them because well... it's day drinking and of course, a great opportunity to catch up with everyone, their projects, current tea, or get it to the latest dance trend. But real talk, it's just comforting to hang out without worrying about a white person popping off at the mouth about race. But that's exactly what happened at this month's brunch party.
