What inspires my work…
What inspires my work are the gifts, offerings and technologies for survival developed by Black womyn and femmes who both intuitively and through lived experience, knew that our communities would need these tools one day. There is a lifetime’s worth of knowledge, skills, literature, art, maps, instructional guides and resistance strategies created by our ancestors throughout our herstory because they genuinely wanted to see us free. They knew what some of us are still trying to figure out: Liberation is Everything and getting us there is ALL of our work. However daunting and enigmatic this task may seem, Toni Cade Bambara reminds us that “The most effective way to do it, is to do it!”
