REVOLUTION LADIES NIGHT By: Tina G.

REVOLUTION LADIES NIGHT BY: TINA G.

I find myself thinking about

what is means to fight for something

Then I find the color worn out photos of grandma in the 1930s

The legacy

No doubt

Hip Hop feminism

The footwear black chuck taylor shoes

One more bangle around wrists

Matching door knocker earrings speaks volumes

See most white women that look like me can't understand

The urban blend

ILL mind

Stretch marked skin

What dreams may come

REVOLUTION LADIES NIGHT MEETING PART 3

During this week, we came together to speak about self-worth. What our own personal definitions were. Personal Testimonies, ways we can build self-esteem. And how it is important in a relationship. And during our open FORUM discussion we each individually put together our own collages. The collage had to depict how we were feeling at the moment or how we percieved self-worth to be.Tina G. [a.k.a Lady G] brought in a variety of super cool magazine cutouts to provide for everyone and everyone else had the choice of providing their own materials as well. So  Here are some pictures of the meeting. Enjoy.

NEXT MEETING: 1/26/2010 OPEN MIC

("Girl With Mic"--by Bensonator--www.deviantart.com)

This week's meeting is basically going to consist of an open mic... all members should have a piece to share, be it a poem, story, etc.

This has to be something from you and/or about you.

Be honest, be real, be true.

Looking forward to hearing everyone's pieces!!!!!

Freedom.

Freedom- Liberated from all the shackles and ropes that once bounded my feet and held me down to the ground. Freedom had seemed such a distant feeling, something that was almost unreachable for me. Have you met freedom? I'm still looking for her. She seems to visit those around me, but skips my house in turn. Have you met freedom? Can you tell her I'd like her company. Can you tell her to please untie these ropes that hold me captive in this desolated dark atmosphere i call my room? Have you seen her? Do you hear her? Tell her I said hello.
