The Listening Project: A Poetics of Relation (poems and collages by Alexis Pauline Gumbs): Kriti Sharma: Everyday Ethics
http://listeningproject.blogspot.com/2007/01/kriti-sharma-everyday-ethics.html
Wednesday, January 10, 2007. Kriti Sharma: Everyday Ethics. Sometimes you hold words. Suspended between your hands. Like a transplanted honeysuckle. Back to your throat. Sometimes you toss words. High with your eyes. And everyone waits for them. To fall in into the telekenetic place. You're conjuring with the rest. And sometimes you catch words. Low in those blooming hands. Steadied to your focused chin. And safe in your open mind. What I mean to say is. To the miracle of response. Because LOVE gets thre...

Loving+Learning=Healing: August 2006
http://lovelearnheal.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 23, 2006. Short film on young black women and beauty standards. I got an email about this short film by Kiri Davis about the internalization of racist beauty standards by young black women. It's well done, and the young women featured speak very articulately about racism, colorism, loss of heritage, and other things. It's only seven minutes long and you can watch it online. It's pretty heartbreaking. Maybe a resource Ubuntu/education group could use? Posted by Nick @ 6:59 AM. I'm sure t...

Tuesday, April 17, 2007. Nikki Brown: Color (or what it feels like). When you set your chin. In the spoke of demand. Where the sun is extra. Into the part of the sermon. When no one can tell. Gives our hungry eyes. Here is a healing Mandala that Nikki made with the members of the Katrina Neighbors healing circle that she facilitated. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Listening Project: A Poetics of Relation (poems and collages by Alexis Pauline Gumbs): Michelle Lanier: Ribald Farming
http://listeningproject.blogspot.com/2007/04/michelle-lanier-ribald-farming.html
Thursday, April 12, 2007. Michelle Lanier: Ribald Farming. Angels stain the air. When you reach for words. The soil you trace. And birds sound the calling. To water what knows. So i'll curl a streamer. I'll smooth a mound. I'll balance a birthing gourd. Meaning I will cultivate grace daily. Thank you Alexis. This is a priceless gift. It feeds me on this morning. It inspires me to be shown OUR light through poem and image. You make me more beautiful! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Because LOVE gets t...
