the books that shaped fort negrita

Self Reliance

eco- conscious, black feminist, thought theory, wangari maathai, the greenbelt movement, queen afua, jambalaya luisah teish, sisters of the yam, bell hooks

one taught me love, one taught me patience, one taught me pain. really tho! lol

 

i'm starting to prep for @blackmomsblog 'period party" on january 6, come out atlanta! and i'm pulling more books for my mini-library. these books changed my life, and i carry these books with me to every pad party, and that's because i hope they will offer to others what they have offered to me. 

i'm going to start with the book that taught me love, and that's sisters of the yam, if something ever knew i needed it more that i knew myself, it was this book. after finishing an abroad research project in the spring then finishing my second semester of grad school, and planning bEARTHday fest pop-up, i was burnt tf out! this book reminded me of the simplicity of love and my ability to perform was not an honest measurement of my wealth. 

next. to the one that taught me patience and that's jambalaya, this book taught me that the universe isn't a microwave, and sometimes you gotta wait for that (womb)manifestation to come to fruition.

the one that taught me pain was sacred woman. that book tore my little life apart in 2013, and told me in a thick southern/island/creole accent "try again dear". i remember reading that book and thinking, i can't eat what? i gotta build what? and almost six years later it makes so much sense, and has made my life fruitful.

honorable mention is the greenbelt movement, it lays out the organization strategy of wangari maathai's greenbelt movement, an org whose mission is to "mobilize community consciousness for self-determination, equity, improved livelihood securities and environmental conservation using tress as the entry point." SHOOK ONES. this book is giving me the tools to design fort negrita the coop. 

lastly, want to engrave minimalism practices in your head without have to loose sleep, give this book one good skim for about an hour. true to its minimalism ideology the book is simplified and succinct. think juicy nuggets not over-piled plates. i can recall the tips in the book like my mom's phone number.

    This is a very joyful day of my life because of the help PRIEST Salami has rendered to me by helping me get my ex-husband back with his magic and love spell. I was married for 6 years and it was so terrible because my husband was really cheating on me and was seeking a divorce but when I came across PRIEST Salami email on the internet on how he helped so many people to get their ex back and help to fix relationships. and make people happy in their relationship. I explained my situation to him and then sought his help but to my greatest surprise, he told me that he will help me with my case and here I am now celebrating because my Husband has changed totally for good. He always wants to be by me and can not do anything without my presence. I am really enjoying my marriage, what a great celebration. I will keep on testifying on the internet because PRIEST Salami is truly a real spell caster. DO YOU NEED HELP THEN CONTACT DOCTOR PRIEST Salami NOW VIA EMAIL: purenaturalhealer@gmail.com. Whatsapp number: +2348143757229 He is the only answer to your problem and makes you feel happy in your relationship…
