Black Ink Crew: New York star Sky took a family photo with her sons Genesis and Des that has fans in their feelings.

Sky’s relationship with her sons, especially her eldest Genesis, has been rocky but it looks like things are taking a turn for the better. The photo shows the tattoo artist and her children sitting on the couch with the caption, “❤️ Complete…
#UsNevaThem.”

“Yaaaaasssssss so happy for you,” said one fan who gleefully cheered the family on.

Others couldn’t contain their joy and some were even brought to tears, “I tried to like the sh*t twice that’s how excited I am for you sky”

“I knew u would get your boys back! Happy for you Sky! Make new lasting memories! 💪🏾❤🔐”

“I’m in tears. So so very happy . That’s what up god bless 👩‍👦‍👦💙❤️💙🙏🙏”

“Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas sky! I live for this moment! So happy it’s all falling in place for u!”

In season 6 of “Black Ink Crew”, Sky reunited with her eldest son after being estranged for 15 years. Sky tearfully revealed she gave her sons up for adoption because as a teen mom she couldn’t afford to care for them. The conversation ended with a visibly emotional Genesis exploding, “That’s some bullsh*t bro!” He pushed over a table and fought the show’s security.

Sky’s younger son Des seemed to be more receptive to his mother reappearing in his life. The tattoo artist enjoyed the experience of her seeing her son off to his high school prom. By the end of the season, Sky and Des’ relationship continued to flourish while her relationship with Genesis hit a few more bumps. But the recent family photo confirms they are at least moving toward a better place.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
