Hey folks, Sistaz Coloring Outside Of The Lines™ is back in full effect Check us out at Blogtalk Radio, make sure you check us out!!! I have a new co-host, the lovely and talented

Dangerous Lee

The first ‘live” show aired on Sunday, September 14, 2008, two years and two days after SCOTL started it’s journey on September 12th of 2006. We took a short hiatus to take care of some personal things in all of our lives and to do a bit of re-structuring of SCOTL too.

Nyee Moses

Make sure you stop by Nyee's myspace pages And show the sista some love!!!!...

Hello all, my name is Torri. Many of you know me from my other Myspace site. I started this site for my internet radio show "Sistaz Coloring Outside Of The Lines" and column "Eat The Music: Torri's Radio Remedy" Thanks to the show and site's producer, Shonia Brown.
Sistaz Color Ouside Of The Lines(tm) came about out of my own frustration with mainstream radio/music and my fierce addiction to good music. I started feeding my addiction here on myspace with all of the wonderful indie and unsigned music that I was finding here.
Sistaz Coloring Outside Of The Lines(tm) features womyn of color who are on indie labels or unsigned. I want to share with you all of the amazing music I've been finding.
Sistaz Coloring Outside Of The Lines is also in the process of obtaining it's 501c3 (Non-Profit Status) and after doing so will begin applying for grants and making plans for the first annual Sistaz Coloring Ouside Of The Lines Festival(tm) which will feature, live, many of the sistaz you've seen and heard featured here. ..


If you really and truly like what's goin' on here, please leave a voice comment for me, the site or the ladies(please keep in mind that my mission is to share and promote the ladies featured here - all people are welcome- meaning there are minors on my friends list, there are people of all religions, sexual orientations, ethnicities, etc. So watch what you say and most of all be respectful_I won't tolerate bashing of any kind!!!). Feel Free to Leave your Opinions, Compliments, a Poem, a Song, a Favorite Quote or anything else that expresses the appreciation of the Sistaz featured here or any Sistaz that you know who are Coloring Outside The Lines!!!!!

Epiphany
By
Torrena "Torri" Dye

Comprehension?
The mystery and the majesty
of black femininity.
What miracles could we work?
. . . magic would we conjure?
if, as a group, we were to awaken
with the knowledge of who and what we are
to open our eyes . . . all of us
. . . all at once
with the knowing of an undeniable truth that
. . . to be born womon is a gift
. . . to be born BlackWomon
. . . a privilege and an honor.

Consciousness?
To awaken with the knowledge,
the realization and the acceptance
of the responsibility
that comes
with
this gift
. . . this privilege . . . this honor.

Cognition?
To know that we can, should and must
recognize this awakening in ourselves
and in our sisters
and attempt to awaken those who still sleep,
so that together we could and would . . .
subjugate the would be subjugators
. . . those that would seek to
suppress . . . oppress . . . repress
the power that exists within us
when we are a united force.

Cohesion?
When we refuse to
surrender, submit,
yield or give in
to those who, upon recognizing that we recognize
who and what we are,
look upon us
with fear and loathing
and in the fear and out of that loathing
they attempt to extinguish
the ObsidianFire
that is BlackWomon!
With our eyes open,
they cannot triumph!!!.
ah yes! Epiphany!!!

Hi, it’s been a long time since I’ve been hanging out on myspace. I’ve turned into some sord of hermit. So, in good old fashion sense of spreading love , I’m saying. “What’s up? How ya been? And Here’s a cyber hug. MMMMMMMMMM. I am sending this same message to as many people that I can reach. But I can’t reach everyone. So spread some love yourself……So peace, light, and love to you. Song

ini are made in the image of Jah and according to His likeness. in the beginning Jah said let there be and it was. Jah called forth everything out of nothing. sometimes ini have to speak life into i own situations. ini have to call those things as though they already are. look at a ship: although they are large and driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires. like a ship ini can turn i lives wherever ini desire with a very small rudder our tongue.

Hey Darlin,

I know everyone's been bummed out because of Michael Jackson's recent departure, so I thought I'd remind you of what day it is today.

In addition to it being National Corvette Day, it's also National Ice Cream Soda Day! On June 30, 1953, the Chevrolet Corvette was the first sports car to come off the assembly line in the US of A!

So, go get yourself an ice cream soda and drink it while riding in a little red corvette! It won't bring MJ back, but it will put a smile on your face, even if it's for just a little while!

Abundant Love and Sunshine,
Setra
