Her: Why do you get upset when ppl say they're going to the Dominican Republic? I heard it's nice! Me: I'm Haitian, remember? Her: So? Me: Soooo black people in the DR are literally lynching, murdering and deporting Haitians for being "too black." Even though many of us are related to them by blood. And the government is encouraging it. It's genocide and self-loathing on steroids. In 2016! Her: Damn. Would you be mad if I went? Me: Would you ask Anne Frank that about 1942 Germany? 😒 Her: Ok see! Now I just feel uncomfortable Me: Eh. At least you aren't hanging from a tree while folks scurry to buy discounted vacation packages for the resort down the road. Her: ...... I blame this morning exchange on Danielle ; who reminded me last night just how much this topic upsets me 😑 If you've posted Punta Cana travel pics in the last few years... there's 100% chance I unfollowed you the whole time you were there and briefly felt like you didn't give a damn about my people. I say that without exception, apology or an ounce of hyperbole. If I was taking smiling, happy ass snapshots on an active plantation during the 1800s... I imagine my African American friends would feel the same #CousinsKillingCousinsOverBlackness #ButYouStillTrynaGoToTheBeach #NotAGoodLook #FightMeOnThisIfYouWanna #HistoryIsntOnYourSide

The face you make when your Lyft Driver is a black woman blasting #Lemonade... whose singing along *extra hard* like she JUST caught Becky with her husband before picking you up.

So, I'm writing a book. And truth be told - it scares the stuff out of me. Not to mention I'll miss the money I made focusing on other things. But I've been meditating on it for weeks now and can't escape the feeling that it's time. This morning I woke up around 7am to get some water and instead of falling back asleep I laid in bed for 45 minutes while a whole chapter "wrote" itself in my head. I was too stunned to even grab a pen. Just laid there listening to what sounded like an internal audiobook narrating page after page. Last month the founder of theGrio flat out said to me, "I think there's a book inside of you," and I'm just now realizing how prophetic those words were. Whatever "this" is - I need to get it out. Now. It almost feels like my sanity depends on it. Scribbling prose on napkins and writing long vents on social media isn't cutting it anymore. Have no idea how long this will take but I'm going for it. Pray for the kid. 😇 #366DaysOfMagic #Day142 #WhenItsTimeItsTime #NotHowISawThisYearGoing

Had a particularly challenging chanting/meditation session today and when I opened my eyes the landlord's dog (not pictured) and this rubber ducky were both giving me the side-eye. lol Instantly burst out laughing and took it as a reminder to cut myself some slack. One of the many things #Buddhism has taught me is to let go of perfectionist tendencies. Baby steps. 🐣 #366DaysOfMagic #Day137 #SGI #BlackBuddist #NamNyohoRengeKyo #TheDogSatDownToMeditateToo (at Los Angeles, California)

Real talk: Our hike to #WisdomTree almost killed me today! lol But the way my Aries ego is set up, we kept going another 45mins before I finally conceded defeat. Will definitely be back for round 2. 😉 #WisdomTree #SundayFunday #MeAgainstThisMountain (at Cahuenga Peak Trail)
