maraakil LOVE IS___ A photo you love of you and your love!  I mean come on… look at the tonal composition— it’s just magic! Beginning with the #LOVEis color on the backdrop.  And I’m wearing black, he’s wearing grey, both of us are rocking the salt and pepper in my braids and in his beard. And Salim is SMILING!  Can we get a church clap for that?  And then the reason we are even taking this picture is because of the success of #BlackLightning and its return to #ComicCon.  We’re still here, just like in our relationship, we’re still here… together!  It’s rare to get us in a picture together… but we have this one and I will cherish it. I mean, come on, did the stars align for us on this snap or what?! Did not plan this at all! (S/O to @gettyimages) #sdcc2018 #InTheLandOf #AMagicMoment

If you’ve wondered what in the world I’ve been posting lately and asking “What show is this?”…

Whoops, I’m so smitten with Love Is___. Have rewatched the 3 episodes so far plenty and listened to the whole show’s playlist via spotify. I really hope more folks get into it and start to edit and talk about it. I started the #loveisedit tag but a bunch of my edits so far have been lost in tumblr blue since I’m the only one adding to it right now so please feel free editors to join me in using that tag and you can find all my sets so far here  Also the #love is and #love is own tags are being used by a few of us to liveblog and post about things.

Love Is___, created by and inspired by the real love story of Mara Brock Akil and Salim Akil (yes, from Black LightningGirlfriends, The Game etc) comes on Tuesday’s at 10PM on OWN
