The first time it was Montego Bay, the second Negril, and this time Ocho Rios 🇯🇲She called me ✨and I had to divine on it because Jamaica has got some strong spiritual medicine and I’ve had life changing doses of those bitters before. But it was confirmed for me when I was awakened into awareness that Ocho Rios means Eight Rivers. I was most certain at that point that she called me 🐝✨🍯✨🐝

There is therapy here. Not just the water, sand, and sun but the beauty of blackness and reflection. People who look like me, with stern brown faces that respond to eye contact and head nods and will often explode into smiles if you offer one. Black people, we live close to our hearts and those small acts of acknowledgment open doors.

I reached places I wouldn’t have without those interactions, like the fire water in St. Ann and the home of Marcus Garvey. And I was reminded in many ways why Black Diasporans must join hands. There is healing in seeing ourselves beyond the borders of our environments and present circumstances. This is the power of reflection and Garvey knew it.

Every Diasporan needs access to some place tropical and predominantly black for our physical health and our psyches - at least one foot out of this western madness. When we hold hands across the diaspora we create greater opportunities for ALL of us.❤️🖤💚

Thank you Ocho Rios for welcoming me home!!!🇯🇲✨🐝✨🇯🇲

and the invite you to “In Remembrance of Stolen Black Motherhood”
When the rage settles, and the fires simmer, what do the Mothers return to other than the emptiness that was once filled with the vitality, hope and future of their children? An even more appropriate question to ask now would be, how do we remember them? How do we lift them up?

Black mothers in Georgia have been dealing with the risk of Black maternal and infant mortality, lack of Medicaid extended benefits and COVID-19; and in the midst of a pandemic mothers continue to see our children murdered in the streets. We cannot take the time to care for ourselves nor grieve because we are too busy trying to weather the ever so present storms of life that continue to weigh on us daily.
on Saturday, June 20th join SisterSong in honoring the mothers that have lost their children to state sanctioned violence. We will say and lift their names through ritual and ceremony. This ceremony will be to honor, uplift and protect the sanctity of Black Motherhood.

Registration is required for attendance. You can find the registration link at www.sistersong.net
