Life Lately

November 9, 2020

Jamaican food in honor of our first Black/Jamaican/Indian/female Vice President. The future feels bright.

At the last minute we decided to take our Black Lives Matter flag to the celebration today, which Kembe rigged up to a fishing pole. It was wild how much cheering and honking we heard today about that flag. I know that people were voting for the candidate but I can’t help feeling like this election was also about voting for inclusion and justice … and in today’s celebration we all felt that. #blacklivesmatter

Once Biden’s win was announced we decided to head to downtown LA to celebrate in the streets. The energy was insane! So much positivity and love. People were screaming out of windows and honking their horns, playing drums and dancing. Mexican grandmas and Black millennials and every age and shade, just sharing in what feels like the weight of facism and racism being lifted. This country has so much healing to do but today felt like hope. #dtla #bidenharris2020

Feels good to be pulling this out for a party in the street instead of a protest. 🇺🇸✊🏼✊🏾✊🏿🇺🇸

Hopeful.

We’ve got our dance music queued up and our celebratory drinks ready. Let’s gooooo!!!! #election2020

I just don’t know if I will ever get over people voting for him again en masse. I don’t know how to live in a country where this happens at such a large scale. Where I can’t expect that most people are decent. My belief that people are inherently good is shaken to the core.
