WEstcoasT Artist Bambu!

This song is dedicated to men
who call women Queens when
it is convenient and treat them like
a Bit*h when they are with their
homies in the streets.
"Queen" is becoming a watered
down concept. Mean what you say
and say what you mean.
Respect. The women in this video
are role models in the Los Angeles
community. So honored they chose
me to be part of it. Enjoy! :)

    yay! luv the cameo :) OMG! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS!!!! this is something i have been saying for years. being a child of the hip hop era, i was a witness/recipient of this hypocrisy. so-called conscious men talking out the side of their mouths and abusing that word queen. and now being a part of the queer community i see the same thing unfortunately. so-called conscious women proclaiming that they adore their sista queens and then doing them dirty. my favorite line of Bambu's song is "new patriarchy in a conscious song" so true.

Spring Vigilance

Greetings loved ones, This picture reminds me of how connected we are with nature. The tree an extension of myself,  helping me stay balanced and grounded.  I'd like to share what I've been practicing in order to transform into my better self. Perhaps you will find something helpful that will further your inner journey as well.  Practice compassion for those who have separated themselves consciously. Start by forgiving yourself for not being perfect. Love individuals that are difficult to love. Not just particular people, do it without circumstance or demand. Remain vigilant and conscious. Stay present. Be impervious to negativity. Take accountability. Do your inner work. When you know yourself, you trust yourself. The more trust the more self love and self acceptance. Stay connected with nature. I enjoy going to the beach or sitting under a blanket of trees in my garden. Listen to the rhythm of nature. Nature moves with purpose. A vision pulls you forward. Don't...

I'm Reading at the Craft & Folk Art Museum

The CAFAM Shop is thrilled to introduce a new zine/small press section, curated by L.A. Zine Fest and The Pop-Hop . We're celebrating the launch of the new collaboration Saturday, April 18th, and you're invited. Work from The Blk Grrrl Show , John Pham, Yumi Sakugawa :: Comic Book Artist + Illustrator , Tiny Splendor , and Selfish. This is really exciting for me because I have been a zinester since 2010 with the launch of my Black Punk Rock themed zine "Abstract By Nature." I'll be there representing with the #blkgrrrl show and reciting a few of my poems from my chapbook "Rage Love Complexity."  Very honored to share the stage with Pam Ward and Teka Lark Fleming. I donated books and I will have chapbooks available at the Pop Hop in Highland Park, Ca. See you there, Zoe Blaq

This was an inspiring weekend for every type of writer who needs a little push. I had fun sharing my poetry with a talented group of Los Angeles poets at the annual LitFest Pasadena.
