goodgood news...

so beans informs me of luscious news...mc lyte and sister souljah are going to be at sisterfire!* in september! this is incredible i say. my love child is being blessed by the presence of some more of the greatest greats. i've already got some feelins' a brewin' about ms. lyte but we'll leave that for another time and place. at any rate, i would love to drop in on the haps on the caps while the lovely ladies are in town. let's see how it goes...

*for those of you who don't know, sisterfire! is an all women open-mic/conversation/emotional sweatlodge that i founded and co-created at spelman college in 2001. i facilitated this magical, beautiful healing space for two and a half years before graduating and passing it on to some incredible younger sisters. the fab four, (beans, tha seeya, 'reese and project peace) have been powerful leaders in their own right for the last two years and now that some of them have graduated, leadership has changed hands again. i'm so honored and blessed to have participated in such a powerful and neccesarry experience. give thanks for all those who have ever showed up, both physically and energetically to bless the space. abundant gratitude for carrying our light and love forward.

i'd love to hear more about these brewin' feelings about the l-y-t-e.

as for souljah: well, when i heard her speak, she had some really interesting things to say. then there were some other things she said and a nig was like, "wha?" i wonder how her thinking has changed/evolved since then. or if she has the same views.

SAY WORD!!!! that's the truth! sisterfire;s making smoke signals. somebody's got to get the message! i'll be gone til september and probably after that, but i know that the set will be a smashing success. i just can't believe that two major stones of the foundation are rolling through and i won't be there! shout out to the seeya who may have to help the souljah adjust her views for the dawn of a new day (reference: the album 360 degrees of power).
love....
