my job took us in to an informative & trip today out of state.
i would feel emotional, triggered and upset whenever slavery and racism is the topic, more because of anger along with questions unanswered. but i am truly thankful for this opportunity, for it opened a lot of eyes, hearts & minds.
before going this trip, i told myself to be strong and to face the uncomfortable to be comfortable.
but i still left with a question:
what are we doing to break the stigma?
how will i teach my kids & the youth the history without feeling angry and towards the others?
…….more reading, more engaging, louder voice, more healing.
i needa writeeeee, whew i been weeping all day till the bus ride home. 🙏🏼
peace, justice, love & happiness.
das it. das it.
protect us, daily.
mentally, physically, emotionally & spiritually.

It's been a minute since I've been on...that was on purpose. I've been prioritizing my mental and physical health so I can keep on keeping on. For me and my daughter's. Not at the expense of me for the benefit of whiteness. Stay safe Black kings 👑✊🏾 and queens 👑✊🏾
In solidarity 🫶🏾

Black History is American History!!!! Black History is World History!!! Happy Black History Month! ...... This month we celebrate those Pioneers and Dreamers who paved the way for us. There are so many known and unknown heros who have contributed to our rich history. A history that connects us across the diaspora spanning multiple generations, and in a variety of disciplines. Our history continues to inspire, empower, and shift perspective. Today and everyday we reflect on Black History. Black Present. Black Future. Three years ago we made history by becoming the First Black Woman Owned and Operated venue in the city of Atlanta. Thank you for all your love and support. We celebrate our anniversary this month as well. What will be your legacy? Are you writing your place in the history books? #Iamblackhistory #blackhistorymonth #blackhistoryeveryday #atlvenue #atleventspace #blackownedvenue #atlblackownedvenue #BlackHistory2023 #February #HappyBlackHistoryMonth #bhm #blackhistory #blackhistorymonth2023 #blackhistory365 #Celebrate #BlackHistoryMatters #BlackHistoryIsAmericanHistory #becauseofthemwecan #blackexcellence #trailblazer #BlackBusiness #Entrepreneur #BlackEntrepreneurs #SupportBlackBusiness #BlackOwned #BuyBlack #BlackLove (at Atlanta, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CouareeAR9p/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Black history month interesting info:
 According to an Antebellum-era legend, hush puppies got their name when people escaping slavery wanted to keep any watch dogs silent. They would throw or drop the fried cornmeal balls to keep any dog’s attention on the food and away from the fleeing person.
