"It will also not give us the emotional and psychological clarity we need to do the feminist research in Black women’s studies that will transform our own and our sisters’ lives [emphasis added] (p. xxiv)." But Some of Us Are Brave (Hull, Scott, and Smith 1982) #blackfeminism
I DO NOT CLAIM #JEZEBEL. SHE WAS NOT EXECUTED FOR SEXUAL/RELIGIOUS FREEDOM. SHE WAS A THUG. SHE MERC'D ANOTHER PERSON SO HER HUSBAND COULD TAKE HIS LAND. WTAFH!!! #BlackFeminism #Feminists #Feminism
I also take pride in Nanny of the Maroons, recent ancestors like Octavia E. Butler, Ursula K. le Guin, and many others. #Feminism #Feminist #BlackFeminism #Feminists
I take pride in #Deborah, one of the ancient Hebrews' first woman GENERALS. Her troops refused to go into battle without her leading the helm. She was also a seer, a political leader, & a respected icon in her own right. #Feminism #feminist #BlackFeminism
I can see more reasons why #BlackFeminism had divorced itself from mainstream #feminism ages ago... Why is #JEZEBEL a #FEMINIST ICON??! You do know she WAS A VILLAIN? Her hubby envied another dude's land & she HAD THE DUDE M-U-R-D-E-R-E-D & then told her hubby he can go & take the land!

If Black women were free, it would mean that everyone else would have to be free since our freedom would necessitate the destruction of all the systems of oppression. —The Combahee River Collective

Waiting to Exhale wasn’t anti-love — it was pro-breathing. Thirty years later, Black women choosing sisterhood over suffocation looks less radical and more inevitable.

Fury isn’t weakness. It’s clarity. It’s refusal. It’s truth spoken without permission.
Some voices were never meant to be quiet.

Junk journaling is alchemy. How we conjure a story from a photo and a song lyric. Receipts become proof of answered prayers and envelopes the keepers of deferred dreams. We repurpose discarded materials for the earth’s sake and our own.

Slowing our pace to experience the paradigm-shifting power of intentional rest in justice work. How does your organization stay rooted in your humanity and hopeful for the world you endeavor to create?

A quote which reads: "As the routinisation of spectacular violence carries it ever closer—or even in—to the realm of the ordinary, I begin to wonder: Could there be such a thing as writing that is too beautiful? Could beauty become a valve through which a reader's affect—rapt in intrapsychic experience—is funnelled away from urgent realities of an antiBlack now?"
An extract from “Jennifer C. Nash, How We Write Now: Living with Black Feminist Theory” by Foluke Taylor.

Art from the remains of my consumption. Art as healer. Art as creative environmentalist. So grateful for discarded things made new and bold and free.
