At a glance, this image appears to be another photo in the roll to sort through...on the way to the main shot. In my eyes, it is highly symbolic. One sister is watching the other one's back as she starts a fire. Images as these are important to share, because they show unity in action between powerful black women. They document journeys of creative journeys, and what happens when like energies align. Images as these display the power of feminine unity. One, a one woman radio station, the other, a one woman magazine. It is also symbolic because one sister is watching one's back, a polar opposite of what mainstream media pushes with constant catfighting. The green she wears is for grounding, the red I wear is for passion. We are both submerged in the blue...oceans of The Mother energy. This images Steph Coleman's nudge to inspire me to start my creative fire...just by being herself. Happy 15th, Steph!

Ase in Love,

BATON ROUGE, La. — The bronze man under the oaks at the LSU Rural Life Museum still tips his hat. One hand raised, the other at his side. The 1927 plaque on the pedestal is plain: “Erected by the City of Natchitoches in grateful recognition of the arduous and faithful service of THE GOOD DARKIES OF LOUISIANA.” Donated by J.L. Bryan. A later plate notes that the figure, sculpted by Hans Schuler of Baltimore, was given to the museum in 1972 by Mrs. Jo Bryan Ducournau of Hope Plantation. A museum
