Hi and welcome! My name is Sallie from realfatlife.com and I'm so glad you are following! Some of you I have known my whole life --@jessica_holloway7 @ah_wils @ceflynn91 --and can attest to the fact I'm definitely a little crazy 😝 But there are some brand new faces too, so I thought I'd give some quick things about me for fun . . . • 1. I LOVE to cook and feed people 🥘🍲-- Since I was little, I have loved to cook . . . I can remember as a young girl loving to coordinate big, fancy meals for my parents and family. I love finding and making new recipes and I love improvising! I feel like cooking is my creative outlet. I feel so free and "artsy" when I'm in the kitchen throwing different pallettes of flavors together to make a tasty canvass of food. 😍 • 2. ‎I HATE dishes. I really hate dishes.🍴 And that's a problem because the way I cook produces LOTS and LOTS of dishes. 😬 I try my best to constantly be cleaning up, but sometimes they get the better of me and frequently they stress me out. • 3. ‎I love to swim and run. 🏊‍♀️👙🏃‍♀️👟Like really. It is my stress release. It is my sanity. There is nothing better at this stage in my life than, when both kids are having a meltdown, to throw them both in the double jogger and pound out all my frustrations into the pavement up a big hill. 👣They quiet down and go to sleep right away. It awesome. They love it. I love it. We get sunshine and outside time.🌞☀️😎 Win-win. • 4. ‎I love to play and teach classical violin. Like really. I would do it all day if I could. 🎻🎻🎻 • 5. ‎I hate having a messy house. It still stresses me out. I'm learning to try to let it go... • 6. I love to feel healthy and strong. I love to set BIG GOALS and then accomplish them. I love having the energy and focus to make it through my day and accomplish my goals. • 7. I have been through some crazy health challenges and physical setbacks. But they have made me stronger even through they have been so hard at times. A seed must fall into the ground and die before it can grow, and so must I be broken before I can be healed into a woman stronger than the one I was before. 💟 #realfatlife #womenriseup #girlseatrealfat #strongwomen

Panel discussion facilitated by Chakka Reeves as part of the double bill film screening of the Women’s March on Washington and Women Mobilized for Change 1966 to 1974 at CIMMfest on Sunday April 23, 2017.

Our program was scheduled after an all male panel (all white with one hispanic man). The all male panel started late and ran into fifty percent of our scheduled time slot. The audience who turned up wanting to attend the Women Rise Up program walked into an all male panel discussion - can you imagine? But yes it got worse, not only was it the usual bunch of men talking about their work and what they do and representing themselves and having the space to talk about what they do and their ideas. Two of the guys, lovely as they maybe proceeded to talk about how they had taken a slogan from a women’s march in 2016 and created a techno track with the verse “Pussy Fights Back”. They also mentioned they were thrilled to see women playing it on the buses to Washington DC for the Women’s March in 2017. They could have stopped there making the perfect segway into our films having at this point run over by 20mins but the facilitator who is the current Assistant Director of CIMMfest said to the female on site producer that he will finish when he is ready. 

So when they finally finished at 1:30pm the Assistant Director failed to mention the next program which is weird and when asked to do it refused. At this point I went up to the “facilitator” to ask if he could announce the program and he told me he had the power. Yes indeed this is a question of power and who gets to have it in public spaces. So I asked him to question his own power in these situations and stated how problematic this is. (I do hope he reads this as I hope he does more thinking about this and how he can address his privileged position in future.) 

Then what happened everyone in the audience was furious and the panelists who were there for our conversation were angry too. Why? Because this is a classic example of patriarchal privilege that occurs everyday. Men taking up our time and space and in this case our audience to represent themselves rather than being in the listening seat for a change. I do a test these days I always go up to my male colleagues and ask them what are you up to? How many times is the question reciprocated? Zero percent. 

So the offense from the all-male panel rippled in different ways throughout our audience and panelists but one thing that made it worse was the “Pussy fights back” techno track. Part of the problem with patriarchal power is that men assume they have ownership of our ideas and can take and steal anytime they want from us. We just have to read the history books to see this annihilation in action - a classic example was Claudia Claudel whose work was stolen by Rodin. We all probably have a personal story of appropriation that we could share. I recently had a graduate student who had worked with me during his summer prior to his first semester of graduate school and he took the basis of my conceptual framework for his entire thesis project. 

Another woman on the panel was highly offended by the techno track as she is a survivor of sexual assault and finds the whole language around “Pussy fights back” a sexualization of the female body in a political context that is yet another form of erasure. Unfortunately we have adopted yet another example of female objectification in order to campaign for our liberation. The use of language that is constantly used to oppress our bodies and voices needs to be analyzed and considered questioning the cycle of oppression. 

My hope is that organizations like CIMMFest and workplaces start to address this by creating training days that specifically address inequality in the work place. We need to have open conversations and address this in a constructive manner. It’s time for speech, action and methods.

Our girls night/sleepover is coming to a close, but not before we spend time in #worship in the house of the Lord 🙌🏽 One of the things I'll miss the most when I move to #NYC is seeing their beautiful smiles twice a week. The potential that exists in this group of amazing young women is so exciting. I am so proud of them! They are all truly destined for #greatness! ______________________________________ "I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back." -Maya Angelou 👸🏽 ______________________________________ As women, we sometimes can be very quick to write one another off. "She's doing too much." "I don't like her because she does this and does that." "I rather hang with guys because it's less drama." Sound familiar? 🤔 ______________________________________ Before you make a statement that writes off your sister, look in the mirror at yourself. If women who are involved with "a lot of drama" gravitate towards you, really look at yourself and your heart. You probably don't like them because their behavior reminds you of what you don't like about yourself☝🏽#FoodforThought ______________________________________ #Women, let's come together and #RISEUP! It is our responsibility to reach back and help our #sisters. Let's work together. Let's support one another. Let's help one another. Let's share and teach one another. Let's love harder. The #world can always use more of that. We are #StrongerTogether 👸🏽✊🏽 ______________________________________ #kaihugs #kaihugsworld #kaihugsinspires #mentor #mentoring #mentorship #coaching #blackgirlsrock #blackgirlmagic #womensempowerment #girlsrule #girlsrock #womens #women #womenriseup (at Judah Temple AME Zion Church)
