While CNN etc are playing around showing the rotunda feed, South African tv station @encanews is broadcasting Aretha's funeral along with an all Black and fantastic panel discussion on her life, the parallels between the African American and South African struggles, and the history and current state of black music globally. Thank you @encanews! #Aretha #ForTheCulture #thediaspora #SouthAfrica #Africa #BlackAmerica #BlackLivesMatter #expropriationwithoutcompensation #solidarity #church #ancestors #ThisIsUs
I love how my husband brings home veggies, bread, or some sort of local produce from his work travels. Cause I promise you when I travel I'm not returning with potatos unless someone gives to me. 😂 But I like how his mind thinks differently due to his village upbringing. #balance Anyway, these are some potatos he brought back recently from outdoor farm vendors and I was like, wow these are some fresh potatoes! Can't remember ever buying potatoes in the States with so much soil just sitting on them! Straight from the soil! #Healthyeating #Naturalfoods #straightouttaAfrica #organic #Africa #Namibia
My son (that's him) and I went out yesterday with some family friends for a late afternoon picnic at this old train station here in my town in #Namibia. The kids played in and around this old train and then a security guard came up to us and told us not to allow them to go behind the train because there's a cobra snake living behind it 😰 Later that evening at home I Googled "cobra snakes Namibia" and lo and behold they're extremely venemous and lethal. 😵 #Africa #motherhoodabroad #Expatmotherhood #diasporababies #toddlersofNamibia #closecalls #yikes 🐍
My husband snuck a shot of me and our brand new three year old the other evening as we grabbed a bite to eat! I was surprised at how deep in thought I looked when I saw the photo... I was trying to remember what I was thinking about... Probably just general thoughts of still being in awe of motherhood... It's still sinking in three years later. ♥ Ps... yes I have on my LLBean winter coat! It's winter season here right now so it goes down to the 30s! #Namibia #Expatmotherhood #Threenager #diasporababies #toddlersofNamibia
IMAGINE moving to #Kenya and starting your own business selling cakes on the street... We chatted with Preshay, an African American who did it! Photos are all of her life in Kenya! 💡Are you ready to take the leap too? Do you need help planning a trip to Kenya? Then you definitely want to read and listen to my interview with Preshay—she's a GEM of a resource! 🔗 LINK in bio! #Blaxit #BackToAfrica #BlackTravel #TravelAfrica #Kenya #Mombasa #Nairobi
