Today for Day 22 of , I thank my unconquerable soul! The road has been rough and beautiful, soft and full of depth, sometimes it’s felt long and lonely, and other times, I’ve felt so suffocated by my environment that I literally went running for the hills of Santa Fe lol! Oh what a ride it’s been. I’ve picked up so many names, been blessed to have been taught by some of the greatest teachers, and have been honored to have just as many mentors and angels on earth. I am so deeply grateful for my adventurous heart, open and ready for the next chapter, I give thanks. Thank you for joining me on these 22 days. May the solstice bring the cool mist of reflection and rest, and propel us into a magnificent and historic spring. I am grateful. We are blessed.❤️🙏🏾✨

For Day 21 of , I give thanks for Mayor for Life Marion Barry! Like so many other Washingtonians, I had my first job at 14 years old as part of the Mayor’s Youth Leadership Institute. Beyond this, Mayor Barry spoke at mine and my siblings high school graduations, all spanning many years apart. He made it his duty to show up for us in ways I have never seen any other politicians, any where in the world emulate. I am grateful to have witnessed such remarkable leadership. And even with the great efforts to tarnish his legacy, I am also very grateful that I come from a city that understands the importance of loyalty and self-interest. I am proud to one of his many daughters. I am proud to be a Washingtonian. I hold my head up high because of the path he paved for me and my family. May this great city (and hopefully the ) forever be watched over by our formidable ancestor, Marion Barry.❤️✊🏾✨

Happy Sunday! I just love this repost. What powerful sentiment that if Jesus was born today in Bethlehem, he would be born in the occupied West Bank!! Profound beyond words. So today, Day 20 of , I give thanks and all glory to Jesus. His teaching of radical love and compassion for all mankind continue to impact the world. And despite the efforts of so many false prophets who twist his revolutionary teachings to serve demonic, colonial, and oppressive ends, He continues to move mountains and miracles in favor of divine justice, true love, and the living word of God. All praises in truth, love, and light.🕊️❤️🙏🏾✨

For Day 19 of , I am grateful for music! During my reflection today, I gave thanks for the music that plays in my mind all the time. There are so many great musicians across genres whose sounds bring so much healing to my life yet today, I’m keeping it DC. This Eric Sermon sample of Marvin Gaye is the most accurate description of what music is to me and what it does for me.🎶

For Day 18 of , I am forever grateful for the community builders, tacticians, and organizers! These 18 pictures don’t scratch the surface of the amazing organizers that I am privileged to be in community with! One clear goal for 2026 for me is to take more pictures with and of the amazing people that I admire their depth and commitment to Black people, to Justice, to Freedom, to Humanity, and to DC!! Thank you from the grassroots to the grasstops!

Today, on Day 17 of , I give thanks to organizers and galvanizes through time and space that have helped shape my strategic mind! Organizers are typically okay with being the footnotes of history because, after all, that’s the point lol! They are visible to the shining stars that depend on them and are the captains of every liberation movement. In the photos are: Fumilayo Ransom Kuti, Fred Hampton, Mary McCloud Bethune, A Philip Randolph, Ella Baker, and Bayard Rustin. These kingmakers and queenmakers are the ones that inspire me the most because their works are their voice.❤️✊🏾✨

For Day 16 of , I am grateful beyond words allow me to express for the many powerful mothers in our Washington, DC community! When going through my photos, I realize that there are I have had the honor to be in community with so many trailblazing mothers and caregivers. From those in elected office to those in the trenches to those in the C-Suite to those dynamic organizers to the warriors and strategists…just too many to name. These 16 photos don’t scratch the surface of the powerhouses I get to work with and play with and just love on every day! They keep me grounded and help to constantly remind me of my WHY. They are my North Star. And one thing is clear: I don’t have nearly as many photos with all the amazing mothers that I know. And with God’s grace, I will prioritize capturing more photos of my beautiful community to show how we . And I look forward to finally chronically stories because of there are some real chiefs in my sphere. If you didn’t know, DC Muvas got it going on!! Thank you for holding down your families, communities, and me. ❤️🙏🏾✨

I had such a powerful and amazing day, right till this moment that I’m writing this. On this Day 15 of I am reminded once again why I do the work that I do. And I do it all to restore matriarchal principles and values from the rubbles of colonial massacres. I credit two scholars - Ifi Amadiume and Cheikh Anta Diop - for gifting me the strongest understanding of matrifocality and understanding this principle (and reimplementing it!) is the path to sustainable liberation. And I am eternally grateful to this book African Matriarchal Foundations: The Case of Igbo Societies (1987) by Amadiume. In it, she credits Diop for laying the foundation for her understanding of a cultural principal that is inherent in Igbo indigenous culture. This book propelled me to writing my own dissertation called Imperialism, R**e, and the Congo Predicament (2015) and continues to shape my living works - in thoughts, words, and deeds. I am fortified by these ideas and thank these brilliant scholar. I pray to one day meet Ifi Amadiume and honor her as the formidable elder that she is!

For Day 14 of , I am eternally grateful to my amazing Linesisters!! I am for sure the most awkward and maybe the most introverted of the our line of Six Degrees of DSTinction, and I love that they just me anyways. We have grown up together and bore witness to the most critical times of our lives. We love like family because that we are! I am proud to be our R.O.C.K.I.E. 4 life. I am honored to be made by the Mo Betta Mu Beta Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated. And I look forward to strengthening our bond until we all earn our wings. Life means so much more with my Sorors!

For Day 13 of , I am grateful for the written word! I found this repost of an already compiled list of some of my favorite poets. As a youth, music and poetry guided me to myself. I am grateful for the permission they gave me to not just express myself but also to live my life poetically.❤️
