beginning my 5th decade around the sun,
and I am grateful,
may the wind always beneath our wings
i think they really love me, for real
but sometimes, it feels like this..
thank you mom and dad
living with rich dad has been learning about race and racism, something that rarely bothers me when I am with poor dad
Will I be stuck here foré?
Will daddy stop beating us?
quitting, again
gnawing feels, this isn't it
have to listen to the journey
women are carrying a beautiful, but dangerous femininity
it puts you in trouble even when you're just trying to go about your day..
In honour of International Women's Day 2023
I went away, now I'm back. I still don't know a lot.
notes about "niceness" to my younger self. mentions of street harassment and nairoberry, the beautiful cruel city.
In the end, it's just the sheer emptiness that is defeating. I want my time back, all of it..
cases of femicide put the unholy fear in my heart. stay safe.
what a thought!
Brokeness 101, lesson muhimu kaNairo. You might need to have a freezer, but then you'd no longer be broke, haha.. (:
"Kenyans are so friendly!!" I have heard this a lot and living in Kenya I must admit I didn't really understand what I was being told. In other words, kutembea majuu ndio kujua wakenya tunakuaga warm, maisha majuu ni coooold!!
It is heavy. And sometimes insurmountable. I am learning..
Title really speaks for itself..
Welcome to season 2. This episode is about decolonisation as a personal experience.
you're walking down a crowded street, you make a turn and all of a sudden, there is no one in sight. you're all alone walking this street. what goes through your mind?
you are an african timer, you never keep time, you're just an african timer, unapenda kuchelewa..
the recording in the beginning is from a Radiolab podcast about the Kenya Land and Freedom Army (KLFA) - aka The Mau Mau, a pro-independence force active during the state of emergency in the 1950s in colonial Kenya. all material belongs to Radiolab, i own none of that. in case you'd like to hear the episode, which is a gem, here's the linko: https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/radiolab/articles/mau-mau
aka International Appeal, is it weird for an African to speak so much English?
