so, my name, face, work, dance, choreo, and sound are on the largest building facade in the city, the largest and only platform of its kind in the world. I also put my bestie's name and work, my granny, my momma, and countless other BLACK WOMEN AND MEN on the side of the largest building facade in the city..... employing an ALL WOMXN CAST AND CREW....and... still giving God every single piece of the Glory... don't come for me, I have no control over how God chooses to protect... after all, my name is Gift from God of the Lord, and I've only JUST begun advancing His Kingdom.
To anybody going through hell, keep going-- my testimony is on the way... statistically I should be dead, strung out, homeless, in an abusive relationship, loving what's toxic... hating myself... instead, I'm FINALLY MYSELF, BECAUSE GOD IS A RESTORER, living my dreams, happily and hopefully married, a homeowner, and creating and promoting equity, love, connection, dance, vulnerability and truth in the city of my birth... I am my ancestors wildest dreams... and you are too.... I'll leave you with this from Lucille Clifton Brown-- COME AND CELEBRATE WITH ME, THAT EVERYDAY SOMETHING HAS TRIED TO KILL ME AND IT HAS FAILED.
Keep believing God, he's still God. More on the way, until then, go see Trap Moulin Rouge on Merchandise Mart through Nov 18-- a reminder for my people, that we are, always have been, and always will be: FREE, LOVED, AND HEIRS TO THE MOST HIGH GOD ❤
Remember my name, cuz you're not about to stop seeing it, and remember whose name I come in honor of, cuz it's seeping from my pores. Amen and Ase.
