“The Crow and the Carnival Queen”. This was the first painting from my Caribbean Folklore series from 7 years ago. It’s still one of my all time favorite paintings. Inspired by Caribbean Carnival.

A woman isn’t “difficult” because she respects herself. You simply don’t value that kind of power…

Amerikkka the beautiful Oh say can you see we are no longer in chains but still oppressed The lynching never stopped We are still on display for all to see in the streets when they kill us All that binds us now are our own minds Freedom is an illusion Beliefs are our overseers We the kidnapped children Abused by our captors and left for dead Our rising like the new day comes… #poetry #blackpoet #blackpoets #blackwriter #blackwriters #writer #king #queen #goddess #empress #wombman #blackman #blackwoman #blackwomanisgod #wordsmith #melanin #melanated #blackauthor #blackauthors #empowerment #supportblackauthors #supportblackpoets #supportblackwriters #blackpower #blacklove #racefirst #africanamericanauthor #africanamericanwriter #supportblackbusinesses #supportblackbusiness
honestly tho this is why i hate white ppl who practice vodou voodoo or santeria cuz its like ur stealing my culture that u made impossible for me to access
like i personally dont agree with “if ur called to it regardless of race u should go get involved” bcuz its like
no u should spiritually suffer for something u denied to me and my kin
u should have to make sacrifices for the fact that ur ppl not only tried to destroy these religions but also commodified them once u saw u could
u dont get to be happy spiritually when the rest of us have to make due with blog posts and occasionally finding an affirming book

Fuck your superstitions A black cat crossed my path A black woman crossed my path I felt lucky as they gazed at me with deep mysterious eyes In awe I fell speechless wanting to know the warmth of her What magic would she possess as her midnight companion sat atop her crown… #poetry #blackpoet #blackpoets #blackwriter #blackwriters #writer #king #queen #goddess #empress #wombman #blackman #blackwoman #blackwomanisgod #wordsmith #melanin #melanated #blackauthor #blackauthors #empowerment #supportblackauthors #supportblackpoets #supportblackwriters #blackpower #blacklove #racefirst #africanamericanauthor #africanamericanwriter #supportblackbusinesses #supportblackbusiness
