Wow I loved this video. I’ve always seen her in pictures but , didn’t know who she was. Thank you for this video. 🙏🏾❤️

She has ALWAYS BEEN A QUEEN AND role model.. 👑💛👑SHE WAS OPRAH BEFORE ORRAH... I NEVER SAW OPRAH AS THE BLACK MEDIA LEADER ...I ALWAYS SAY QUEEN SUSAN TAYLOR..

Ive seen this beautiful so many times in my life and never toom the time to find out her name.

Gosh dont know where to begin with this video. Found it so emotional! I've heard about this Goddess so much even 'Danai' Gurira boldly admits she was inspired by Ms Taylor when she visited her country. Who wouldn't be??? I should have been following this woman more aptly then I have. What a brilliant woman! Her legacy is truly enriched by her efforts as an African-American philanthropist and a Black woman of excellence. Black Girl Magic at its finest!!!

Susan Taylor is one of the most beautiful women in the world... She exudes light.. Love.. And what black women should exemplify

I read her commentaries a lot during my teens while my mom was a subscriber!

I also miss B.Smith!!

Am I the first 😁. How about doing something on Top 20 African American chefs.
