![[OP-ED] 5 Ways Beyoncé’s ‘Cowboy Carter’ Tour Reaffirmed My Identity As A Black Woman From The South](https://madamenoire.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2025/07/17537311377204_5a4e93-e1753834267579.jpg?quality=80&strip=all&w=1083&crop=0,0,100,660px)
As a descendant of sharecroppers by way of Dinwiddie, Virginia, when Beyoncé, kicked off the Cowboy Carter era during the LVIII Super Bowl held in Las Vegas in 2024, I was ecstatic, particularly running "16 Carriages," one of the two singles released during the time of the announcement, because I am a country girl, tried and true.
Beyoncé shed a few tears while talking about her 12-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy’s, upcoming role in the highly anticipated animated film "Mufasa: The Lion King" set to hit theaters on Dec. 20.
The Mommy and daughter duo are back at it!
Once again, Blue Ivy just made history.
Blue Ivy Carter celebrated her very first Grammy award in an adorable series of photos. She was captured wearing a crown and smiling with the award in one photo and drinking out of a striped straw in another.
A Black male journalist and his white female colleague had no problem talking poorly, publicly, about Blue Ivy. Thankfully, it seems in 2020 that people are calling Black men and white women like them out for their anti-Blackness.
