So after shoe shopping at Steve Madden yesterday, I decided to return to my geek side and paid a visit to Midtown Comics for the first time. For one reason only I must add: Mayhem.

I.
love is never appreciated in flesh
ask Jesus.
you will know one day I was the one
II.
thought we had so much more
than wasted time
and rebound love
III.
a woman’s intuition
is her bestfriend
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IV.
The challenge is to try
not to mourn
what I think we had
V.
It is amazing how broken heart
can make the body
so sick
VI.
how do I try to love again
without the tattoos […]

Humankind is so creative. Just when you thought painting, drawing, and sculpting was the epitome of art; an Asian artist in Manhattan whips out scissors in front of my eyes and prove me otherwise. Pure Genius and So Sick!

So last week I decided to take a group of my students to the Metropolitan Museum and I must admit it was the best non-date I’ve been on in a while. I’ve been to the MET several times, but this go round, I visited a part I had neglected. It equaled total awesomeness. Call me […]

So my bud Zakia is a member of an organization called the New African Women’s Caucus. To help out with their endeavor to raise funds for their young women’s rites of passage program and Black women’s health initiative, they held an event yesterday called “She’s So Dope”.
And yes it was dope: full of great energy, […]

Because Out of no where, I can walk outside and see awesome stuff like the taping of VH1 Divas right in front of my face. Last night Divas show was shot at the BAM theatre right in Fort Greene, Brooklyn.

I just wrote an article for Busted Halo called: Street Preaching: Compassionate, Confortational, and Christian: A young minister reflects on her encounter with evangelism.
I am very proud of it because of the experience and lessons I learned. I would love for you to take a read of it. Please click here for the article and […]

A creative space leads to creative masterpieces!! This is the new office of artist, Shepard Fairey, and his company located in Los Angeles. Looking at this, I’m already inspired to do some moving around and renovations in my own space, so I can get “my art” on and popping.

Yesterday I went to the the 4th annual Brooklyn Book Festival. As usual, they had an awesome line up from Sonia Sanchez to Lupe Fiasco and it was all Free to the public. The day was full of talks, q&a, book signing, book selling, and not to mention pure inspiration.

The first person I saw was […]

So I know the above phrase usually refers to Brooklyn, but there is a reason why I utter the above. Last week, the non-profit organization that I work full time for, took our students to Harlem to a park called Riverbank, and this park had trees and water. And I totally forgot I was in […]

So my ATL bud was in town this weekend so we met up on Myrtle for the Brooklyn Urban Arts Market. It was a cool time, full of live music, dancing, hulu hooping, art, food, and clothes.
Its taking place every Sunday in September, so if you are in NYC, stroll on down to Brooklyn to […]

Only in New York City can you experience something as random and awesome as this….
I was in Manhattan yesterday and saw a guy who was drawing hundreds of faces on the ground. As basic as it seems, I interpreted it as simply brilliant.
The guy behind it all is Felix Morelo. Although he seems just like […]

Last night I visited the new museum on Bowery Street. They have a new exhibit up of former black panther: emory douglas. Emory joined the black panthers the year they started their newspaper. From there he served as minister of culture and used his art to spread the black panther message on newspapers, flyers, and […]

So I found three awesome things to get my Thursday on and popping. Of course they all have to do with writing and reading, which makes them extra extra awesome!
The first has to do with my inability to find a bookmark for all the book content I read made by Propaganda, the second thinks about […]

So the fall college semester has already begun and here in the City University of NYC system, this is the second week. Last week I met my students in two sessions of my western civilization course. We talked about ancient civilization and the impact that the Israelite religion had on current day Monotheism.
It was a […]

Above is a picture of a 1960’s Hasselblad Film Camera. As I was writing in Breadstuy Cafe yesterday, Shawn Peters of Rebel Soul Music came in with this beauty. Not only does it look fly, it was the same camera brand that Apollo 11 astronauts used to take pictures of themselves landing on the moon. […]
