So this was amazing. Jeff Chang uses graceful, artful language to capture and elucidate race relations, systemic injustices (historic and current), and some of the lived experiences of People of Color in America. It might not be an easy read for those who are unfamiliar with perspectives offered by justice movements or non-Eurocentric/Euro-sympathetic tellings on history. I highly recommend this, though. If you want to tackle this but think you may need more context before beginning, I'd be happy to recommend some reading (Kelly Brown Douglas and Ronald Takaki are good places to start). Now I need to buy his other books! #postgrad #books #whilethebabysleeps

Finally taking a long overdue Epsom salt bath (with ginger). I already feel more relaxed. ✌🏻️ Note to self: do this more often. #selfcare #whilethebabysleeps #tallpeopledontfitinbathtubs

Anybody else up and active at 11pm 😩??? I just want to be committed! I was watching Venus play Serena and thinking about how I didn't get to the gym today. Debated it for about 30 mins and the gym won. A bowl of cereal won too, but we won't talk about that 😂. #LetsDoThis #gymtime #operationsnapback #11pmgymsession #Iamtired #whilethebabysleeps #postpartumweightloss

A cooking sort of day, my favorite part. If only you could smell my kitchen! Sighhhh. #lavender #beeswax #honey #lipbalm #whilethebabysleeps #philly #ubeewell

In the night lonely night you pull away your out of sight and here I thought we could be true. You're so lost in you and I lost in mine, true love destiny seems so divine. So now I say to you if this will ever be true, will you take my hand tonight?
