Black Love is In Need of Love Today


Black Love Is In Need of Love Today! (Stevie reminds us)
Family, our love is wounded. Daily, our loving ourselves is under attack. Constantly, we're reminded that we're not enough, that we don't deserve the best treatment, that - as Baba Clarke would say - we're "outside of God's grace." We're wounded, so our love is wounded, and wounding. Let's heal it. Let's nurture it. Let's defend it. Let's celebrate it. On Feb. 13th - Black Love Day we'll do just that, by kicking off a year of healing, defending, tasting and celebrating Black Love. Akoma Love. Healing and Building Love. (See Black Love Day - Akoma Love). Use the comment section to send some Love to Black Love. On Feb. 13th, over dinner, through games, interviews and dancing, this year's honorees will reveal how they loved their love - for our people, for themselves and each other. Who are they? Shh... coming soon. Last year's honorees here: web / FB They'll reveal how they healed it, how they nurtured it, how they defended it. Through them, we learn how to wrap the Romantic Love we have or that we seek in a healing container.
  • We honor Revolutionary Love
  • We honor Long Love

To honor less is escapist Hollywood fantasy, a pacifier. We don't need that. We need healing love that will touch us in ways that touch and heal deep down, that last for more than just one night, that will support us being better builders and better warriors. "Cause our love is wounded and under attack.

Join us cause love is in need of love today. Black Love Day - Akoma Love

Building Love - Honoring Cashawn and Shevon.

Building Love. Most of you know that AYA's answer to oppression is to nurture the Warrior, Healer, & Builder in us all. Of the three, too often the builders in us and in our community get slighted. Revolutionary Building is often quiet work. So, I want you to help us make some noise and lift up AYA's Black Love Day 2016 Building Love Honorees - Mama Shevon and Baba Cashawn Myers. When working on the foundation, it's often below ground and can't be seen by passers-by. Movies are made about the defining battle or the healer who snatches life from the jaws of death. The builder drops a small seed in the ground, or in the mind of a student. Not so dramatic, right? When the organizer puts up one more sign or passes out one more flyer, it's so hum-drum. Where's the drama, the conflict, the action? When we think of the Panthers, we seldom think of them feeding our children. Our honorees have been instrumental in building HABESHA in Atlanta, Baltimore, and ...
