"Afeni Shakur wasn’t simply a mother to Tupac and his sister Sekyiwa. She was a former member of the Black Panther Party, an activist and philanthropist. She was also a savvy businesswoman, establishing a trust to ensure that Tupac’s work will always be protected. Partly due to this attention to his legacy, Tupac’s fans embraced Afeni. She already had a public profile thanks to Tupac’s 1995 single Dear Mama, the nearest thing hip-hop has to a Mother’s Day anthem. The track was a poignant peek into a complicated, but loving and relatable bond with his mother: "When I was young me and my mama had beef / 17 years old kicked out on the streets / Though back at the time I never thought I’d see her face / Ain’t a woman alive that could take my mama’s place." Afeni Shakur’s fostering and nurturing of her son’s talent set the foundation for his impact in music. She wasn’t always physically by his side, but she was his support system playing co-pilot as he navigated his way through fame. Though Tupac was shot dead aged just 25, Afeni reminded us that a mother’s love is eternal. She kept the rapper’s memory alive carefully, curating the releases of a massive selection of writings, recordings and memorabilia. In 1997, she launched the Tupac Amaru Shakur Foundation aimed at encouraging and empowering young people aspiring to work in the arts." @guardian RIP Afeni Shakur #mothersdayusa
