HAPPY BIRTHDAY, OCTAVIA ESTELLE BUTLER!

June 22nd, 2024 would have Butler's 77th birthday. Her work, from Parable of the Sower to Wild Seed, continues to impact disciplines from literature to entrepreneurship to space travel. Last Tuesday, Butler's essay, "A Few Rules for Predicting the Future" originally included in @Essence in 2000, was published by @chroniclebooks with beautiful Afrofuturist artwork by Manzel Bowman (@artxman).

Butler's writing inspires activists from @ToshiReagon to Alexis Pauline Gumbs (@alexispauline), @adriennemareebrown, @WalidahImarisha to Gabrielle Wyatt Gardner (@glwyatt). Reagon created the cultural experience Parable of the Sower The Opera, which engages with communities to take meaningful actions towards climate justice. Alexis Pauline Gumbs, adrienne maree brown, and Walidah Imarisha published the "Octavia Butler Strategic Reader" and "Octavia's Brood." Gabrielle Wyatt Gardner founded The Highland Project, a nonprofit investing in the sustainability and multi-generational visions of Black women leaders designing solutions for structural change.

Swipe to be inspired by Butler's powerful call to "write yourself in," check out her literary canon, and admire artwork from "A Few Rules For Predicting the Future!"

Let us know how Octavia E. Butler inspires your life and work in the comments!

[beamingdesign]

Happy 2024! ✨ Exciting news, my first book, 'Beaming,' is being published on May 21st, 2024, by @chroniclebooks and is now officially available for preorder (link in bio).

I’ve been working on this project for a long time, and I’m excited to share this news with all of you.

This book is a collection of existing work and never-before-seen pieces. It’s filled with reminders and messages of hope, resilience, and joy. I wanted to create a beautiful book with radiant imagery, paired with practices, meditations, and colorful visuals. A book that can be opened at any page in the hope to uplift hearts and minds.

This project means a lot to me, and I can’t wait for you to see it in real life. If you are reading this, thank you, thank you for being on this journey with me, thank you for all the support. It means so much. 

Beaming book is available for preorder. Link in bio :) 💗

The Heirloomist turns eight years old today! Developmentally speaking, this means I can dress myself, tie my shoes, hold a conversation, and WRITE A BOOK. That’s right guys—I can’t make this up. On the very day I started this business eight years ago, my upcoming book, The Heirloomist, is finally photographed and written and now in the hands of the ridiculously smart and talented team at @chroniclebooks. This means we’re one step closer to welcoming it into the world. As such, I cannonballed myself into the pool, as one does when you’re eight. It means so much that you all continue to trust me with your heirlooms and stories. I would be nothing with out you. Please keep sending me outrageously special things to photograph for you. I really like it. Let's raise a 🥃glass for this kid today! It’s gonna be a great year. We plan on making a quite a splash💁🏻‍♀️. #theheirloomist #celebrateyourstory #makeitpersonal #personalizedart #modernart #photography
