Not "all white people" are wrong. But when it comes to race, the majority of white Americans have been on the wrong side of every single racial issue in the 248-year history of this country.
So why would anyone even care what they think about Black art?

Understand, the mass rollback on DEI is a test. We are being tested to see just how much we’ll allow corporations and our government lean into discrimination.
They won’t stop at DEI initiatives.

Black love is too wildly expansive and free to be confined or defined by heteronormative romantic ideals. Black love is about loving ourselves, each other, and the natural world. It is found in the flavor of collard greens, the mysticism of root work, and the dedication embedded in community service

Grief is such an odd companion, disappearing & appearing again just when you start to feel settled. My best friend died this week, and grief stays grabbing my hand at odd intervals.

Los Angeles memories poignant these days. Vulnerable, valiant city of the angels. Can barely touch the edges of my grief for you.

Feeling the rhythms of nature, cycles of what we belong to, as creatures of this planet. I feel this aging body in deep compliance to its own dissolution, Solstice feels like the elements of the dark, rich with all we are, have been, and will be.

Contemplating what it means to live in community. What is needed to be remembered in such a venture? Who are we including as part of community? We live with microorganisms, with land and soil and elements. My ancestors are part of my community, and yours as well.
