As a black male, I am constantly asked why I care about how black women choose to wear their hair. I’ve gotten into debates and heated arguments over the years on the subject, from whether black women should where their natural hair to embrace what God has given them and be an example to young black girls looking for an identity in this world, to whether their hair shouldn’t matter when it comes to defining who black women are. I personally believe every part of you defines who you are as a person, from how you wear your hair, how you speak and how you present yourself in general. I have been Loc’d for the past sixteen years, and while I can’t speak for everyone, I can surely say it’s one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. 3

  • Polishing the Silver
    Jennifer Chrystie
    ‘There’s a touch of both Dickinson and Larkin in Jennifer Chrystie’s mature exhumation of the tales and tropes of family. Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....

    There seems to be a big misconception in the Black community that black men don’t really love their children. While there are numerous examples of absentee fathers and 'Dead Beat' Dads that can be brought to the light, there are many more examples of loving caring Single, Married and Separated fathers that should be talked about as well.

  • The ILLUMI-KNOTTY Diaries - Unity in Diversity

    The Name ILLUMI-KNOTTY is an actual play on the word Illuminati. We tweaked it to fit our Natural hair movement.
