🎥 Forgot I did this side quest interview towards the end of last year with . Didn’t think much of it at first, but ended up being a great point of reflection for how far I have come and still going.

🤲🏾🌊♥️This past month, I was invited to translate the stories of two children lost to gun violence into spoken word.

This offering was part of ’s Rhythms of Resistance Black History Program.

Over 20 parents, each carrying the weight of unimaginable loss, were interviewed and asked a sacred question: How would you like your child to be remembered?

Some chose music.
Some chose dance.
Some chose drumming.

Some chose spoken word.
That’s where I came in.

The true gift is not just in telling a story, but in holding it with care and shaping it into something that lives beyond a eulogy. Something that breathes. Something that pulls out the meaning.

This is meaningful work.

Much of my practice as a storyteller has centered grief not as an end point, but as a space for honoring. For tending to those who have transitioned, while also holding the living through what remains.

Never underestimate the power of the word. The power of narrative. It can shift perspective and perspective can move a room….and a room can spark a change in community.

Deep gratitude to for trusting me with these stories.

More to come.

🌌♥️Closing out Women’s History Month with a commissioned poem for The Colored Girls Museum March 2026 exhibition curated by Omo Misha.

The prompt: me, myself, personally.
I didn’t answer it alone.

I asked 45 women to finish the sentence.
All 45 responded.

What came back was layered, vulnerable, honest… familiar.

A reminder that even in our differences, we are often speaking from the same place.

This poem was created as a looping audio work inside an exhibition.

So yes, it’s long. Its heavy. But it’s truth.
Yes, it asks you to slow down.

Maybe Facebook isn’t built for that.
But maybe we still are.
Sit with it. Let it breathe.

🥺Big thanks to all the women who shared their thoughts you all made this poem exist as FULL as it could be.

Q1 Reflections ✍🏽 🕯️ 💃🏽

“The world can be burning, and I can still choose to live fully inside my life…not out of ignorance, but out of reverence for being here at all.”

Thoughts:

As a child, reading history books, I used to wonder
How did people lead ordinary lives while somewhere else, catastrophe was happening?

How did this not affect them too? 🧐

History tends to leave something out.
The personal…everyday stories that connected the dots.

The world has always held suffering.
And people still lived inside it.
Not because they didn’t care
but because life keeps asking to be lived anyway.

That’s why I love storytelling
It keeps history human.
It shows us not just what happened
but how people chose to make it through.
What they did about it.
What they accepted, and didn’t.

Things to keep in mind:

1.Don’t get stuck performing suffering.
2.Don’t use global grief to deepen personal stagnation.
3.Don’t deny yourself joy out of guilt.

Because that doesn’t actually serve anyone.

Multiple truths exist at once.
Grief and beauty.
Suffering and celebration.
The world… and your life.

If you don’t accept that, you will freeze.
And your story will too.

Feel deeply.
Be human.
And still…
choose to live.

While you are still here 🌌

“Messy Peace”
24 x 36
Mixed Media

Whats the Story?

“Messy Peace is an abstract articulation of the beautiful, chaotic struggle toward harmony. No matter the path we take…whether in our homes, our bodies, our communities, or our institutions…we’re all reaching for peace.

This piece is a reminder that despite the turmoil, the tension, and the setbacks, we are co-creating something beautiful. As cliché as it may sound, there truly is beauty in the struggle…but only if we commit to finding common ground, building together, and holding space for each other in the process.”

This poem was written live. ✍🏽
In the room, with the room.

Honored to have been commissioned by the Community Foundation of Greater Flint to create a live poem during the National Day of Racial Healing in Flint. Written in real time through deep listening and presence, the poem became a set of poetic meeting minutes shaped by the conversations, intentions, and collective spirit in the room.
