Keep doing what you love!
Read more: Keep doing what you love!Do what you love. Do it even if it hurts. Do it through tears. Do it through your fears. Do it through questions. Do it out of a need to just simply do it. Do it to move from this present state you find yourself in to a higher level. Do it out of curiosity.…

Keep courageous perseverance!
Read more: Keep courageous perseverance!Yesterday, I sat in the midst of women championed to tell stories their way. We were beckoned to come on stage, snuggle in a new space and maybe even reach a summit. Whatever you do, know that you matter and your ambitions, all of them that keep your blood warm, are valid. I am on…

Keep knowing you are already strong!
Read more: Keep knowing you are already strong!I am in love with Nikita Gill’s Where Hope Comes From. It’s my go to guide for healing and light. And her poem How to be Strong is one of my favorites. There are no rules when you are already strong. Your strength is within you, always no matter the obstacles you face. The idea…

Keep women!
Read more: Keep women!Women have never been the first nor the only group who struggle for inherent rights like freedom of choice. The fight still continues and worth participating in even if the outcomes of such participation are never known by each generation.

Keep knowing that false foundations never last!
Read more: Keep knowing that false foundations never last!Symptoms cannot disappear until the cause is cured. That’s what Zora Neale Hurston once noted when she asked why be crazy for democracy. The symptoms of any decision to overturn abortions will not disappear until the reasons are first addressed. Abortion isn’t illegal. It never has been, not now or never. What they did was…

Keep grump, groan, growl!
Read more: Keep grump, groan, growl!Once we suffered their desires, camps where children play, not childish games but adult ways. Now we grump, groan, growl. Not as they want, but to let our wild moods out, Let these feelings be. We read bell hooks today. Stood by the mirror and let her words slide through us. There will be days…

Keep places accessible
Read more: Keep places accessibleSome places are inaccessible. For those with heads like velvet blackness, skins smooth like the color night. Some places are inaccessible. For those with eyes darkly clear, those who look the sun in the face, unblinded. Some places are inaccessible. For names wrapped with African-ness like a shawl, names like Olisadubem, or the ones for…

Keep Fathers!
Read more: Keep Fathers!I wonder on days like today, how we have made you feel through the years. Did we make you smile? Did we keep you hopeful? Or where we full of stress, full of denials for a freedom you truly derserve. I see that with each passing day, we made your eyes stay wide open. Sure…

Read more: Keep LIGHT festival and your creation story!Our ancestors are our first audience. Christell Roach reminded me of this yesterday. They have stories long forgotten and must be told by us their legacy that remain. So here is my attempt with that. I have tried to understand my creation story.

Keep moving past your fears!
Read more: Keep moving past your fears!I met fear this past week. Danced around in its oasis. For once, it left me without words. Instead, the words were painstakingly put together as a grant. I spent this week writing what maybe the greatest grant ever written. I know I say this a lot. All my grants are like blue skies on…

Keep a prayer for Belle II!
Read more: Keep a prayer for Belle II!My eyes judge your fullness in delight. Ten years of coming into your light. On the day we dedicated you to the universe, the day we raised you up to the one who first loved you, surrounded by all those who loved you, I imagined this for you. I still do for today and tomorrow.…
