Description
As a womxn of color, I feel so grateful and proud to come from a lineage of workers, givers, lovers, shouters, and creatives. Their love, fight, resistance, and collectivity has taught me how to survive and take care. There's an enormous amount of pressure, honor, and responsibility I feel as a Black womxn artist and teacher to support my community and the next generation of creatives. It is an incredible weight but also a privilege to be able to create, think, learn, and support people through their process, thinking, and practice. My family raised me to know the pain and struggle of life but to still love and leave the world a little better than when you came into it.
