🥺🙏🏽. When we got the call we were informed that 2 infants had died a few nights before from hypothermia. Broke my heart, so I pray this helps someone survive a little while longer.

Ironic that the descendants of those who forcibly removed Indigenous peoples along the Trail of Tears are now receiving life-saving aid from the descendants of those Appalachian Indigenous communities.

This week I’ve been in the mountains delivering hurricane relief aid and barely any signal. The world feels strange.

It’s Thanksgiving weekend but as an Afro-Indigenous woman it felt heavy to deliver blankets on the same Trail my ancestors were made to forcibly walk on. But how are ya’ll?

I missed one night on here and missed an entire saga. Forks? 🍴 catfishing?

Today was such a wild day for the #blacksky community.

A hashtag for a catfish wasn't what I expected coming home from work, but the 🍴for verification was not what I was expecting.

Quite a night it's been. 😋

This morning the sun was bright, my covers warm, my coffee was good and I got a message from a young blood talking about “heyyy Ms Parker”

Auntie appreciates the love. It’s going to be a great weekend. ♥️

Stop letting people consume you. They didn’t call? Go to sleep. They didn’t message you? Put your phone down and have a better day. They left you on read? Delete the conversation. They didn’t make an effort? Match their energy. Don't let anyone drain you of your happiness.

I usually misspell their name in an obvious way, and it never fails that my name is magically corrected the next time.

I feel like it’s a micro-aggression to spell my name wrong when provided via email and signature.
