Pen15 season 2 is out on Hulu / what a ride this season has been / a tough year top to bottom but with lots to be grateful for / Cast, Crew, Writers and My Co-Creators 👏 👏👏 we hung in there and made something special. Am I alone in saying that finishing the show could at times feel very much besides the point as the world shook under immense pain and stress? But I’m reminded, in my own lowest moments that I go to friends, family and entertainment for a respite and that’s worth something. To our fellow pen15-ers: We love you fools. Shalaylay Pumpano. Let’s make sure 2021 is gonna be loaded. Mother Witch says so. ❤️

When Great Trees Fall
Maya Angelou
When great trees fall,
rocks on distant hills shudder,
lions hunker down
in tall grasses,
and even elephants
lumber after safety.
When great trees fall
in forests,
small things recoil into silence,
their senses
eroded beyond fear.
When great souls die,
the air around us becomes
light, rare, sterile.
We breathe, briefly.
Our eyes, briefly,
see with
a hurtful clarity.
Our memory, suddenly sharpened,
examines,
gnaws on kind words
unsaid,
promised walks
never taken.
Great souls die and
our reality, bound to
them, takes leave of us.
Our souls,
dependent upon their
nurture,
now shrink, wizened.
Our minds, formed
and informed by their
radiance, fall away.
We are not so much maddened
as reduced to the unutterable ignorance of
dark, cold
caves.
And when great souls die,
after a period peace blooms,
slowly and always
irregularly. Spaces fill
with a kind of
soothing electric vibration.
Our senses, restored, never
to be the same, whisper to us.
They existed. They existed.
We can be. Be and be
better. For they existed.

Closed blinds with bullet holes. Police shot without visuals into the apartment of #BreonnaTaylor. Shot. Killed. Her. Over and over again. Not caring where their lethalness landed or whose of these lives they were going to end. A continued brutality, a genocide upon beautiful black lives.
There have been no charges against the officers involved so far. Link for petition in bio.

Michael Gee wrote this incredible piece for Harvard Business Review (I donno, some college in Boston?!?) describing arguments made in the case of reparations:
“Why We Need Reparations for Black Americans,” from the Brookings Institute
From Here to Equality, by William Darity and A. Kristen Mullen
“What Is Owed,” New York Times Magazine essay by Nikole Hannah-Jones
“The Case for Reparations,” The Atlantic essay by Ta-Nehisi Coates
Google it. Click on it. Read it. Take action by going to link in my bio which will bring you to ACLU site with instructions on emailing your house rep in support of HR 40. Which is apparently stalled but Aclu is still calling upon us to push it forward. And then we do more.
