Pink blue and white candles for Transgender Day of Remembrance

Defying Gravity followed up by Seasons of Love playing this morning.
It's Transgender Day of Remembrance. As the mom of a person being targeted by the incoming administration, and a human who believes all people have the right to exist and be well, loved, cared for, and safe, I will never rest.

American Experience | Chapter 1 | Zora Neale Hurston: Claiming a Space | Season 35 | Episode 2 | PBS The influential author and anthropologist whose work reclaimed and honored Black life.

This clip from PBS explains why her work is critically important from both a societal and methodological stand point. My favorite ZNH quote is research "is poking and prying with a purpose."

Zora Neale Hurston

Zora Neale Hurston

It's the birthday today of one of the biggest influences in my life. ZNH was an extremely talented author who used her writing to document the rich lives of those people she knew. She was a cutting edge researcher who studied and documented religions and communities from within.
