about the site


The kind of person that would like hanging out here is probably one or more of the following: Black. Female. Nerdy. Southern.

She is focused on knowledge, ideas, philosophy and self improvement.

She is interested in life styling - in creating a life that reflects her personal values. In finding alternatives to the mainstream options in career, travel, relationships and identity.

She is equal parts hedonistic and spiritual. Prince is her patron saint. Janelle Monae is her acolyte.

She is intent on healing. Her own wounds. Her family’s wounds. Her generation’s wounds. The world’s wounds.

She is always experimenting. She is never content to stop questioning, or digging just a bit deeper.

Satisfaction is not her goal. Experience is.

The question she seems to ask herself most often:

How will I know what I like most, or what works best if I haven’t tried everything?
