my soul saddened and moved by this transition… LOVE to bell hooks - a treasure and dynamic presence in human form. Her works include 40 books on feminism and race and her words inspired, educated and touched humans across the globe. ❤️🥺❤️ #bellhooks #blackwomen #feminism #blackfeminism https://www.instagram.com/p/CXg5seuPoo1/?utm_medium=tumblr

I'm honored to be one the featured artists in the upcoming THE BLACK WOMAN IS GOD art exhibit to be held at SOMArts in San Francisco. Virtual opening reception 12/11/21 THE BLACK WOMAN IS GOD CELEBRATES THE INGENUITY AND IMAGINATIONS OF BLACK WOMEN The Blueprint: If the Universe Can Be Imagined, It Exists The Black Woman is God Thursday, November 18, 2021, San Francisco, CA — SOMArts Cultural Center proudly presents The Blueprint: If the Universe Can Be Imagined, It Exists: The Black Woman is God, on view from December 12–February 6, 2022 with the virtual gallery launching December 12 on SOMArts’ website. This visual arts exhibition celebrates the Black feminine presence as the highest spiritual form. Co-curators Karen Seneferu and Melorra Green envision The Black Woman is God not only as an exhibition but as a movement-building platform that explores the intersections of race and gender, dismantling racist and patriarchal notions that devalue Black women’s contributions to the world. Now, in its fifth iteration at SOMArts, The Black Woman is God highlights a community of Black women artists whose complex creative practices have influenced the world. “The Blueprint moves beyond realization that outside forces have shaped the Black community to the actualization that they are their own source of healing,” says Karen Seneferu. #art #blackart #blackartists #blackwomen #penandink #spiritualart #tbwig https://www.instagram.com/p/CXNtLWJLRWf/?utm_medium=tumblr

I am an official Ambassador of Compassion. ❤️☺️Last Sunday I graduated from my 11 month program at Stanford University from The Applied Compassion Academy in the Center for Compassion & Altruism Research & Education CCARE. There is a history and legacy within each culture of holding compassion for those who suffer. My hope is that as we evolve as a people we will step fully into our hearts and from there reach new levels of compassion for ourselves and others. Ubuntu. Sawubona. Sankofa. Ujamaa. Love.
