Beyonce Held ‘Alice in Wonderland’ Tea Party for Blue Ivy Before She Hits the Road

Sandra Rose March 21, 2016

Blue Ivy and Solange

Neverland singer Beyonce Knowles-Carter threw a tea party for her daughter Blue Ivy over the weekend. The Alice in Wonderland-themed tea party was bedecked with pastel colors, digital bunnies and a painted on head dress for the 4-year-old.

Bey’s baby sister Solange Knowles attended the party as the Mad Hatter.

Observers speculate that Beyonce is spending quality time with her daughter before she embarks on a 40-city tour that will keep her on the road for weeks at a time. The road is no place for a child, so Beyonce will leave her daughter with her husband, rap mogul Jay Z, and her mother, Tina Knowles.

Beautiful, we need more photos. It’s great to see BIC parents doing something unique. Most black going away parties are usually babkyard bbqs.

OT: hey if you use google, please note that today’s “doodle” is by a young African American named Akilah Johnson. I saw her and her mom on news a few months ago when she learned she was being considered.

“Akilah Johnson, a 10th grader from Washington, D.C., is the first African American to win the national competition for student artists. … “Doodle 4 Google gave me an understanding of why art matters and why MY art matters — it’s because it speaks to people,” Johnson said.” source: usatoday.com
I don’t know this young lady personally, but from what I’ve seen she’s extremely talented and thoughtful. Just wanted to acknowledge her accomplishments….
(not all of our girls are out chasing rappers)

“I based this picture off my lifestyle,” she stated as part of her entry, which is featured today on Google’s home page.

“As a child, I attended Roots [Public Charter School] and Roots [Activity Learning Center], so I was raised in the ‘Afrocentric lifestyle,’ ” Akilah told The Post, referring to educational institutions in Northwest Washington that tout “culturally relevant curriculum” and the aim to serve “the specific needs of children of African heritage.”

“One of my teachers from Roots, Baba Camera, is really [who] made me look at art in a different way,” Akilah said. “As I grew older, I … realized
that the black people [who] came before us … made us into what we are today, so of course I had to include them in some way.” (“Of all the
things I chose to include,” Akilah writes on Google’s site, “the six most special to me are the Symbol of Life [the ankh], the African continent, where everything began for me and my ancestors, the Eye of Horus, the word ‘power’ drawn in black, the woman’s fist based on
one of my favorite artist’s works, and the D.C. flag — because I’m a Washingtonian at heart and I love my city with everything in me!”)

<—Doesn'tTalkToStrangers

Another art teacher crucial to Akilah’s creative journey thus far is
Zalika Perkins, who personally urged Akilah to enter Google’s contest. “She just went with it,” Perkins tells The Post of Akilah’s response. “I thought she would do a great job. She made deadline … and created a beautifully layered piece.”

Perkins’s only concern: “I thought it was so culturally rich that I didn’t know if people would appreciate it.”

Akilah’s composition reflects bright childhood themes on the left, then moves into more serious reflections on society. “Just as we read from left to right, my goal was to make the picture turn heads from the color to the meaning,” Akilah told Comic Riffs last month. “I have a book that I use that’s full [of] quotes, and the one I went by for this picture was: ‘Be the type of person [who] not only turns heads, but turns souls.’ ”

And today, all eyes were turned toward Akilah, who brought her mother, Tikecia Johnson, and Perkins along on the trip to California. “I never imagined we would be here,” Perkins says today, “but she totally earned it.”

“Going Away” where? to Prison? Isn’t that a movie stereotype? Of all the black “going away” to college parties I’ve been to ZERO have been an outside BBQ. And since MOST blacks do it, what celebrity black parent “going away” on tour have you seen throw a “going away” BBQ in the backyard?
Nancy Drew on my ibrowse today

(Sorry, didn’t see the last line of your comment earlier)….the emoji was meant for DTTS. …that she “talked up” someone – in this case, you – who doesn’t post frequently was too coincidental to ignore. That’s it.

her baby will be going with her with a slew of nannies for sure
Jahnée Gill Mr.Eddie Murphy

? YASSSSSSSSSS! Akilah attend a black school with black teachers, that taught her History not His-story. My heart is so full right now. Look at what OUR children accomplish when they’re taught and nurtured by teachers that LOOK like them and actually care.
Nancy Drew on my ibrowse today

You know that is exactly what i thought too! …maybe a ‘going away to prison’ backyard BBQ is what that person relates to most readily (and I’m not one to judge other folks” family traditions), but that doesn’t make it true for all of us *shrug*

Telling black ppl to stop worshiping white idols is not to pull black ppl down that is to lift black ppl up out of the white worshiping we do under the system of racism white supremacy.

How cute! ?

Just read this and didn’t get a chance to see it yesterday…..Beautiful!! I love our black babies, they are so AWESOME!! (That is the word I use with my grandboys everyday……I tell them they are AWESOME every morning)

For those who didn’t see it…..

As soon as I saw Rachel and the comment…..I was going to ask Rachel how the little man was doing and if he was darker than her yet.

Tried it and Failed!!

The last going away party I went to was a Going away to college Trunk party, which I helped cook for and it was not bbq food……we actually had a chicken and spinach quiche, jambalaya and baked fish (that I cooked) on the menu, along with curry and brown rice, fried cabbage, etc. As for going away to jail……….never had one, never attended one and never heard of one in real life…….I need you to step out of the movie screen you live in and join us in the Real World (not the MTV version, though)
