Heri Za Kwanzaa to our Wominist and Black Feminist Accomplices! 💕🌱💕🌱

We hope this message meets you surrounded by loving people, good music, and delicious food. Although this year has been deeply traumatizing, and some of our Black Feminist Gs (pb2u bell!) have transitioned into Ancestarhood, we are grateful that, despite you grief, you have stayed true to your principles of creativity, spirituality, caregiving, solidarity, communalism, and struggle for a liberated society. 

We hope the spirits of Umoja (unity), Kujichagulia (self determination), Ujima (communalist work and responsibility), Ujamaa (communalist economics), Nia (purpose), Kuumba (creativity), and Imani (faith) continue to guide us throughout Kwanzaa and into the new year. Sending you MAJOR! mojo, juju, essence, chichi, love, ase, and warmth. 💕💕

With Love,

The Adis

Ladies! Let’s Listen to Lectures!

By Adilah Didi Adi | September 22, 2020

Beloveds, How you dey? What up doe? Wa gwan?

I hope our “Ladies! Let’s Listen to Lectures” blog series meets you hydrated, held, and surrounded by blossoming mutual aid groups, susu circles, and eviction defense collectives.

In times of patriarchal, colonial, capitalist, and racist catastrophe, like the ones we are in now, it is easy for us to fall into despair. I too have had my fair share of depressive episodes and bouts of anxiety this year. 

Through the lows, I’ve stayed grounded and stabilized by listening to Black Feminist and Wominist lectures because knowledge of the tools to defend myself, survive, and thrive is medicinal. And because knowledge of how to support communal defense, survival, and abundance is healing.

If you are looking for some Black Feminist and Wominist lectures to keep you grounded and inform you of the necessary tools to defend yourself and community during this catastrophe, please listen to:

1. Angela Davis “Frameworks For Radical Feminism”

2. Millennials Are Killing Capitalism “#8ToAbolition featuring Nnennaya Amuchie, Rachel Kuo, Eli, Micah Herskind and Reina Sultan” 

3. Left POCket Project Podcast  “29. Angela Davis’s Abolition Democracy Pt1 - Reading Revolution”

4. Left POCket Project Podcast “31. Angela Davis’s Abolition Democracy Pt. 2 - Reading Revolution” 

5.  A Little Juju Podcast “Ep. 47 Divination 4 Liberation (Sidereal Astrology w: @PeoplesOracle)“

I hope these lectures bring us the knowledge and tools we need to continue the transformative justice work in our communities! Sending you all peace, love, and warmth.
