Captain’s log, stardate 202006.7... 35/ 365 Part One: The relevancy of “Visions”, sung and written by Stevie Wonder, still echoes today's racist society. The best way I could explain it that has been going on for 400 years is Langston Hughes’ ‘Dream Deferred’: What happens to a dream deferred? Does it dry up Like a raisin in the sun? Or fester like a sore-- And then run? Does it stink like rotten meat? Or crust and sugar over-- like a syrupy sweet? Maybe it just sags like a heavy load. Or does it explode?

📸: @michellealexandraphoto Hair and mu: @isabellaforget Dreams deferred.. Trust your path. Trust your process .Trust your vision will manifest. We all have times where we become extremely frustrated with not being where we want to be…in my experience I set myself back fighting with universe trying to be in control of every aspect of my life..professionally ,socially, mentally. It takes hitting rock bottom to realize that you will be rewarded for your hard work when the universe/higher power/God..Sees fit… you are exactly where you need to be. In the age of social media we tend to measure the level of our success based on sally mae’s last post as she flourishes on the beach in France with her current insta-bae. That's not real life. There's little victories and downward spirals that happen beyond what we post that allow us to become who we are Supposed to be. Once you become comfortable with that kind self discovery you can appreciate growth even when it hurts. I belief that owning where you are and embracing the unknown of future fuels productivity and vision to create the circumstances you always dreamed of.. aka.. The bigger picture Every mini struggle..Or crisis will propel you if you let it..You have to allow your faith & passion for that end result guide you through the shitty parts of the journey. More written post coming soon at Laurenashonline.com Love & Light, L.A #brownblogger #dreambigger #modelbeautyhacks #songwriter #dreamdeferred #selfgrowth #strugglebus #faith #blackbombshell

I’ve come to the same conclusion three years ago. So now I see that most just enjoy the show. #Tupac #Logic #Reality #DreamDeferred #ConsciousHipHop #StayWoke https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu4iObdjRQb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tzn42hxs3w5l

#dreamdeferred #Repost @jatue with @make_repost ・・・ Wow woke up to these disturbing images this morning. This is not 1992 after the #rodneyking riots, this is 2020. Our country needs some serious #prayers right now. I’m in leadership in the public sector so I have to watch everything I post. I work hand in hand with the leaders in my area so it’s important to remain politically neutral. But it’s hard to keep that frame of mind when you see these things going on 😢 #georgefloyd #enoughisenough #sad #minneapolis #sickofit #weallmatter #wearedonedying #enoughisenough “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere!” #moloviin #tumohastherange #singtumo #musicheals #stayhomestaysafe #blackhistory365 INCLUSIVELY, AUTHENTICALLY hella #black 🇱🇷🇺🇸🏳️‍🌈 LIFT THE CULTURE with Pro-Black Designs 👏🏾👇🏾👉🏾 @greenwood.dist https://greenwooddist.com/?ref:singtumo . . . . . . . #blackeducator #gay #lgbtqplus #loveislove #blackgaylove #blackgaymagic #blackboyjoy #crespo #liberia #africa #latino #brazil 👏🏾👏🏾🧡 (em DMV DC MD VA) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAvJFQvJsZX/?igshid=1t6duru4jpsgl

Jacquelyn Boyette was my ninth grade English teacher. In her class I earned my first-ever F (it was a pronoun quiz). She asked me to cut my non-dress code compliant hair (long on top, shaved bald all around). She often reminded us that po/em has two syllables, and that as our teacher and due to age difference, she could never be our friend. If you dared to write “grammER” instead of “grammAR”? Well, good luck.
We were required to recite a poem for the class from a list she had provided. Many of us chose one of the two shortest poems for the sake of our memory banks: Samuel Allen’s “To Satch” or “Dream Deferred” by Langston Hughes. I honestly can’t remember which one I recited, but I know it was one of these two.
This Saturday, I will be reading my own poem inspired by the latter, “Langston’s Leftovers,” along with a few other poems, at the @kearnystreetworkshop #APAture 2018 Literary Arts Showcase. The event is at Arc Studios & Gallery, 7-10 pm. Get your tickets on Eventbrite, link in bio!
This year’s Literary Arts Showcase presents 8 talented writers and poets from around the Bay Area, which includes featured artist Janice Lobo Sapigao. You can purchase tickets on the #APAture2018 website (www.kearnystreet.org/apature).

#rip #themomentbefore #Assassination #dreamdeferred #sad #hope many of us have seen this picture I thousand times. I’ve always wondered why he is the only one not smiling he must’ve know deep down inside this was it. I am sure the next frame or two would be of his assassination. I was only four years old so of course I don’t remember all of the news coverage and sadness that followed this day my parents didn’t talk about it. And I only got a feel of it through reading about it in school. Rest in peace Martin Luther King Jr. 🙁 it’s interesting we’re still fighting and arguing about the same things today as we did 50 years ago #ThinkAboutIt
