Last Thursday, #SerendipityLit CEO Regina Brooks attended We Adapt, a one-night immersive event in Tribeca that reimagined SKY FULL OF ELEPHANTS and got to hear from a group of incredible artists about how the book inspired them to create.

The lyrics of Nina Simone's song "I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free" on a white background with a brick red boarder. The title is at the top in red, next to a circular image of Nina Simone with the yellowish-green words "Nina Simone" below the title. Below and to the right is an image of a Nina Simone album with the word "VEVO" in the black that borders the mostly brick red album cover. Ms. Simone's image is from the shoulders up and mostly profile. Her hair is in an updo and she is where a gold spaghetti strap top. Underneath that are tabs entitles "Lyrics" + "Meaning" + "Translations". The lyrics are as follows: "I wish I knew how It would feel to be free I wish I could break All the chains holding me I wish I could say All the things that I should say Say 'em loud say 'em clear For the whole round world to hear I wish I could share All the love that's in my heart Remove all the bars That keep us apart I wish you could know What it means to be me Then you'd see and agree That every man should be free I wish I could give All I'm longin' to give I wish I could live Like I'm longin' to live I wish I could do All the things that I can do And though I'm'm way over due I'd be starting a new Well I wish I could be Like a bird in the sky How sweet it would be If I found I could fly Oh I'd'd soar to the Sun And look down at the sea Than I'd sing cos I know, yeah Then I'd sing cos I know, yeah Then I'd sing cos I know I'd know how it feels Oh I'd know how it feels to be free Yeah, Yeah! Oh, I'd know how it feels Yes I'd know Oh, I'd know How it feels How it feels To be free"
Theme song of my life right about now: "I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free" by #NinaSimone. Came up for me AGAIN while my co-host & I were discussing #skyfullofelephants this morning while recording an epi of the #WritingWhileBlack #podcast.

I finished my first book of the year! It was incredible. 100% recommend. #SkyFullofElephants
“In the end, Black is the Sun, and so we rise.” #SkyFullofElephants
“We must believe that we are deserving of a mercy to ever actually have one.” #SkyFullofElephants
“History didn’t start with slavery and stealing us here cut us off from 25 thousand years of history.” #SkyFullofElephants
Anywoo. As I continue to cast my movie. Mahershala Ali as Charlie. #SkyFullofElephants
I hate that Sydney even exists, tbh, but this story of self discovery and the beauty and strength of Blackness is so beautiful. #SkyFullofElephants
If I had the money and connections, I’d make this movie myself. I am so enamored by this story. I want to see it outside of my mind. #SkyFullofElephants
Imagine Yara Shahidi as Sydney and Lovie Simone as Nona. #SkyFullofElephants
Being racist as a mixed person is wild. #SkyFullofElephants
Sky Full of Elephants asks in a world without white people, what does it mean to be Black?
