Capitalism wants you to pick one interest and choose a niche. Your spirit wants you to express every aspect of your being because authenticity cannot be contained in one box.

I can’t believe it’s been one year since the release of my first book, Child of a Stolen Homeland. It has surpassed every expectation. It’s been read across the globe, and I often receive photos from readers sharing their favorite poem. That connection truly warms a writer’s heart. Thank you all.

I’m not trying to say ‘I told you so,’ but for many Brown and Black people, this system has never been a surprise. We lived this reality for a long time. We’ve been sounding the alarm for years but the world wasn’t listening until things started happening to those who aren’t us.

Merry Christmas to all. And especially to those for whom today feels complicated. To those missing someone. To those holding grief. The holidays can be overwhelming. So remember, you’re not alone. May you give yourself the same love and compassion you give to others. Much love.
