When an artist is moved by an artist, that movement creates a movement of its own. When baby sis tells me she loves me, she does it with a poem. When she wants me to know I am loved, she often relates it back to the work I do. When I want her to know I love her, I wrap myself in her words and give them legs, and together we continue to move each other, forward.

"The one being carried does not realize how far they've gone" - an African Proverb

There is something to be said about the safety of black women in this moment. Something to be said about being owed the rest and progress that comes along with being carried. The security of it all, without ever being made heavy with the burden of moving the needle alone. Who has ever carried us without the immediate expectation of being carried back in return? I vow to carry us always, and pray your feet never know the feel of ground again. For my feet, and by our feet, my back is made beautiful and whole because of you....
