The work we do is definitely not for the accolades, but it’s good to know that it doesn’t go unnoticed. Special Thank You to @ybandnb for the certificates of recognition and acknowledging our passion “For The Culture”. NONE of this is possible without the community and we are grateful for each and every one of you who have made this vision a reality. LETS KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK #blackxpressionfamily .

Self, the love there of felt; ever only when comfort is embraced amongst lonely..we meet creativity on the avenue of curiosity and courage. En, masse we believe we are more than we allow ourselves to be. You know what you never hear grow? A tree. May the roots of the decisions you decide to embark on be as resilient as the internal struggle silenced in silence, while smiling…or trying to. The Way Roots Grow looks different for every one who chooses to be rooted in growth. To be rooted in Growth is to accept the journey as direct connection to destination not separation from. To be Rooted in Growth is to dance the way your spirit guides you not the just in the way life has trained you.
@intimatelyeuni vulnerability is a permissions game, thank you for allowing us permission to experience the vulnerability of your decision to grow differently.
What will you find along the path. Take time to see “The Way Roots Grow” an exhibit crafted curated by: @poeticartistry20

Art, like communication is a two part phenomenon. Communication is vibration it must both go out and be received to truly exist. Art is to be both expressed and experienced.
If you haven’t, take time to experience the expression of BOUNDARIES live. Fre3sty13..thank you for communicating.#

Join us for the first event of the year back at guild room.
This Saturday 3-6pm Fashion, Food, Fun. Shout out to @mixedgrounds four year anniversary taking place earlier in the day be sure to stop by and congratulate them as well.
As the world squirms (at best)with a heaviness that can’t be ignored, we have to remember that there is a place for softness and patience in resistance.
These 😈 systems really hate to us coming because we resist convenience. We’re acting on our desire to connect with the creative spirits of our ancestors.
Little by little
With space for imperfections
In joy and grief
See you at The Upcycle

@calvinsphotographicmemory sent out a message for an idea to bring to life a timeline of Black History using lemon grove starting with 50s.
Here are some of the results, I wanted to capture the essence as best I could.
Photography for me is more than attractive women in suggestive positions though I am good at that as well I feel like a photo should attract more than your libido. A photo is the marriage of art and science. Whether you clock it or not it makes you feel something and even if for a moment transports you some where. When you see photos on IG ask , what is it that they want me to see. Sometimes it’s not that deep, but sometimes..it is.
Somebody’s favorite memory 📷: me
H4HSD is back March 9th at Market on 8th st and we’re celebrating international women’s month! 💛✊🏾 every successful movement in history would not have been what it is without the backbone of strong women.
On March 9th we celebrate women in our own community who deserve their flowers.

The event is free for all ages and we will be collecting any non-monetary donations for the people in most need.
A community based in love, compassion, respect, understanding, and mutual support for each other is what we hope to rebuild, and it always starts at the bottom. If we look at our own people who are struggling as pests, then how can we expect those in power to treat us any different. We are closer to those without homes than we are to billionaires. If we want change in this world, we must know that change begins within us and within the communities that we are a part of. The greatest among you will be a servant for all.
Even a small pair of socks helps 🧦 thank you to all the organizations that joined our cause. If you do wish to donate money, we encourage you to look into these organizations and what they do. Thank you and God bless #H4HSD
Black Xpression is TONIGHT! We’ll see you soon!❤️🔥
