March has been a decent reading month but I’ve never been more happy to see a month end. It’s been stressful and reading has been the main outlet to help manage my anxiety. The stack on left are my February reads, on the right are my March reads. ⁣ ⁣ 𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐂𝐇 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐂𝐊 - 𝟕 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐬 ⁣ 🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷⁣ #GatheringofWaters by Bernice McFadden ⁣ #SheCameToSlay by Erica Dunbar Armstrong ⁣ ⁣ 🍷🍷🍷🍷 ½⁣ #UnderTheRainbow (not pictured) by Celia Laskey ⁣ #TheGirlWithTheLoudingVoice by Abi Daré⁣ ⁣ 🍷🍷🍷🍷⁣ #TheHoldout by Graham Moore ⁣ ⁣ 🍷🍷🍷⁣ #AmericanSpy by Lauren Wilkinson ⁣ ⁣ 🍷🍷 ½⁣ #DearEdward by Ann Napolitano ⁣ ⁣ 𝐅𝐄𝐁𝐑𝐔𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐂𝐊 - 𝟖 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐬 ⁣ 🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷⁣ #NativeSon by Richard Wright ⁣ I read this back in college and was profoundly mesmerized by how Wright’s of the plight the Black man in America is still as poignant & relevant from the time it was written to today. ⁣ ⁣ #ARaisinInTheSun by Lorraine Hansberry (not pictured)⁣ Incredible.

I'm so excited for this movie I can hardly contain myself! Loooong before it became popular to speak on stories told from a feminine, in particular a black woman's, perspective it had been in my heart. From theatre to screenplay writing to poetry to fictional writing and now back to theatre...my world is evolving full circle. I am witnessing my dreams come true. ~~~~~ #shecametoslay #harriettubmanmovie #harriettubman #americanhistory #herstory #shechronicles #blackhistory #abolitionist https://www.instagram.com/p/B4QGyBAjoh2/?igshid=1vhijwc0xx1xa

Does Shea look upset to you? She doesn't look upset to me. Shea the Ice Queen, folks. (War On The Catwalk, Ohio Theatre at Playhouse Square, Cleveland OH, 7/27/17) #sheacoulee #shecametoslay #chillqueen #livevocals #dragqueenwithamic #dragqueen #mppresent #waronthecatwalk (at Playhouse Square)

Day 14-#Love I know I sound like a broken record y’all, but I don’t think I can stress enough to you that you’ve got to #LOVE every part of you. Whether you were born with a flaw or picked it up somewhere in life. Yes I edit most, if not all my photos. I can’t deny that, y’all would be quick to clock me anyhow 😉 That being said when it came to editing this photo, I was going to take this damn cord for my charger out, but I decided against it. Like our flaws, life isn’t perfect, things change or need recharging. Do what you’ve got to, but somehow find the courage & strength to learn to love you just for you! •••• #LoveYoself1st #LifeLibertyLovethemFlaws #Curves4Days #TakesTime #BigBishWould #GayChristian #FatisFab #YASQween #SheCametoSlay #FebruaryPhotoChallenge2019 (at Roswell, New Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuF2kjSBiMR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hih96wn6dg7q

#Repost @abwhtruth (@get_repost) ・・・ Not shown in #HARRIET was Tubman’s first attempt at freedom. On September 17, 1849, Tubman and her brothers Ben and Henry ran away from Poplar Neck in Caroline County, MD. Their enslavers placed this $300 ad for their capture. They stayed hidden nearby for about three weeks but returned to the Eastern Shore. Shortly thereafter, Tubman struck out alone, eventually gaining her liberty. #TheyCameToSlay #SheCameToSlay https://ift.tt/2N4QT0I Follow #ADPhD on IG: @afrxdiasporaphd

We live in the same era as Taylor, ENGINEER OF THE WORLD'S STRONGEST BRIDGES EVER BUILT, Swift.

Munch on that with your breakfast to go on your morning commute.

Reading for Resistance, Reading for Revival ⁣⁣ “My book club led me to discover my life’s purpose: Uplifting the narratives of black women.” - @guidetoglo, founder @wellreadblackgirl⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Glory, you have truly uplifted black women. For the third year in a row I’ve attended the #WellReadBlackGirl festival. It’s one of my favorite events of the year. Spending the day basking in the excellence of black women does something for my soul! What a day of #blackgirlmagic— from the riveting poetry of @staceyannchin, to the thought provoking/truth telling panels, to meeting #blackbookstagrammers IRL— I left feeling revived & inspired. Thank you Glory for the space you’ve creative for us. May you continue to rise, thrive & shine ✨💖📚🍷⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ #WRBGFest19 #shareblackstories #diversespines #blackbooksmatter #bookhaul #crossfire #shecametoslay (at St. Francis College Brooklyn) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4denvRA0Q9/?igshid=jzm6lxk8m8jv

🌜REFLECTION🌛 . Today was my last day interning at ASOS and although it had its ups and downs I just want to say how grateful I am to everyone who made my experience memorable. @amy @jonny I love you, I couldn’t name a more iconic duo even if I tried. @em you are my rock I dunno what I’m going to do not having lunch with you everyday. To everyone on the Outlet & Lads teams, thank you for putting up with me and my shenanigans. You deserve an award🥇P.S. If I’m ever on time for something I’ll let you all know... Jokes aside I am so thankful to have had this experience and to have learned so much from some very inspiring people. As this chapter of my life closes another one opens. Here’s to a #FreshStart🥂 #NewBeginning #SheCameToSlay . 📸: @natazjaa (at Barcelona, Spain)
