Out and about 🤍

Okay so listen, I get that gender disappointment is real. But my question is: why does it seem to lean more toward wanting sons more than daughters? I want us to interrogate that. I’ve seen some pretty heartbreaking gender reveals as well. (I really don’t even like those reveals anyway… for multiple reasons). I guess I just figure a healthy baby and mother is the bigger priority. What do y’all think? 👀💙💓

AIRINUM x THE INVISIBLE HEALTH ISSUE: AIR POLLUTION

Spring in the City: The Lite Air Mask is a reusable air mask that protects against air pollution, smog, pollen, allergens, and bacteria. Made with a lightweight 3D Air mesh material and elastic air loops, the Lite Air Mask provides a great balance between solid protection, lightweight comfort, and a timeless design for everyday use.

Each of Airinum’s collaborative designs intends to raise awareness about climate change and inspire more people to join the movement towards a cleaner, healthier tomorrow. In partnership with Milkywire, a Swedish platform promoting the UN Sustainable Development Goals by supporting locally-rooted nonprofits, AIRNUM has created The Airinum Fund as well.

I love my Lite Air Mask, breathable even in this Florida heat. ☀️

This past year i was privileged to be a part of a research team headed by a black woman, conducting research about black women. As black women myself, I know we often have to FIGHT for a seat at the table. When we finally get that seat at the table, we usually pick up the mantle and make space for others, incredibly resilient, caring, forward thinking individuals that we know deserve to be here too.
I was also privileged to be a part of the Velvet Fist Project by Ellen Lesperance, wearing “The Celebrations and Congratulations” sweater myself & with my team. The battle-axe sweater is a symbol of feminist and le***an strength, and has been worn by many individuals across the nation as a protest in itself. Ellen Lesperance knitted this sweater with the intention that it should be circulated to any person interested in wearing it for a personal act of courage. The idea is that this sweater will provide the wearer strength and courage, a gift and a transmission of energy from the artist, and from the accumulated energy of past participants in the project.
The full title of the “Congratulations & Celebrations” project is “Congratulations on Every Section of Fence Ever Pulled or Cut Down, on Every Minute in Police Custody, and on Every Day in Prison. Celebrations for Every Police Vehicle Marked, Challenged, Stopped! Congratulations and Celebrations!” — incredibly celebratory of things that we sadly do not typically celebrate. It is a reminder that there is honor to be given to people who disrupt routine civic life in order to make injustice known.
The same racism that crushes the necks of unarmed black men with their knee is the same racism that has ravaged the bodies of black women throughout centuries, with black women’s bodies essentially founding the very field i hope to practice in, OBGYN. I am smiling here but hurting inside for black men, black women, black children. I shall remain committed to the cause. I shall not be paralyzed by helplessness. May my rage be actionable. May my rage bear fruit. SAY THEIR NAMES. @ Johns Hopkins University School of Nursing

🧡The Thai people were so gracious. I think they were intrigued to see 3 brown girls in traditional Thai garb. Alot of people were asking for our pictures and saying we looked so beautiful. Eventually, we were interviewed by Bangkok news, met local celebrities and also the head monk. They even organized a traditional Buddhist ceremony for us to participate in. I draped Buddha and said a prayer for success in my life. I literally felt like a celebrity lol. ✨There were so many cameras , lots of media (look at them smiling in the background 😂. So proud). They wanted to understand why we were so willing to be a part of the celebration . But how can you go to another country and not dive right in? 🇹🇭. The elders gifted us with sweets and pastries. One of the best days of my life! What are the odds? . @ Wat Pho

Afro Spice 🌍 | This outfit has a bit of sentimental value to me. In 2013 when I went to Kenya, in Mombasa, I really connected to a couple of the ladies in this particular village. We talked about fabrics and motherhood/ womanhood. They recommended that this cloth would be the best for me. I bought the fabric and took it home to the US. fast forward 5 years later, my mom makes this entire outfit for me out of said fabric. There’s double the memories here, double the love.

Stepping into this week with a smile on my face. There’s a lot of life changes happening and a lot of moving parts. Here’s to perseverance and discipline for the next month. 💄: 📸: .canon
