About me:

About Me? I guess that’s a pretty standard question right? It’s just that there really is no standard answer. If you ask me who I am today, I will tell you that I’m a love song on a mix tape, everything you don’t need but can’t throw away, a fast getaway in a slow ass car. But that’s only today, and if you know me, you’ve probably already heard that poem, which technically just makes this a remix. I will say… that the process of both knowing and enjoying who you are is an important and necessary voyage. Let’s be real…. It’s not always easy being who you are, especially in environments that don’t foster cultural understanding, love or community involvment…but damn y’all…we owe it to those before us to try! There are so many opportunities to do something…anything. Whatever you feel comfortable doing, is exactly what you should be doing. Don’t let others trick you into believing you’re not powerful or important or relevant. Just speaking to people walking down the street is a start, dialogue, movement, trust and on and on and on…. So for today I will say that I am a sometime poet, playwright, dj, community organizer,radio host, daughter, friend, soul sister, granddaughter, auntie, niece and damn good woman and with the right resources, environment, mental state and the right man ( I'm tired, I dont want to do it all by myself people) that will only be the genesis! ..
