Quick note!
For those wondering… yes I’m still around and still working on blog posts. Just been busy adjusting to life/work/parenting post-pandemic and post-conviction. All is good but hectic, and there hasn’t been as much time as I want for waxing philosophical. Soon, soon. All my love✌️ -MS
So, I wanted to talk about you on threads. (I didn’t) The real (48%of white women voters and 93% of black women voters) sisterhood talking covens, woman living cooperatively together raising their children, taking down those disgusting carbon based life forms that have the audacity to say ‘your body, my choice” and how the voter totals aren’t adding up.
You are the OG, the GOAT, my teenager would say you have aura points.
I wanted to tell them about your bodega. How you out smarted the patriarchy and created a really great community of women until an actual criminal man ruined it.
My despair after the election felt crippling, while I’ve resolved to go down fighting and not let the bastards get me down, it is daunting feeling.
I’m not posting this to guilt you into a response, my thoughts just generally turn to you in times like this and I remember your cleverness, bravery, and sacrifice. The comfort and caring you provided and I can’t be the only one.
