Sobek Films Fundraiser February 6th

Hello friends,

I am pleased to announce our first pop up film fundraiser is finally here! We will have a fun evening of show and tell, music and live entertainment.

DiSpell is the outcome of my travels to Costa Rica, Louisiana and researching my ancestry. I partnered up with filmmaker Skryb Anu of Earth Realm Comics and we will navigate across country to experience and archive ancient traditions and cultures that connect people of color on a global scale. Our intention is to empower and rebirth a new way of thinking about the African diaspora. Our intention is to reconnect with who we really are for further innovation.

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.

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.
