Words by Ella Baker. From a speech given at the Institute of the Black World held in Atlanta, Georgia in 1969.
“I am saying as you must say, too, that in order to see where we are going, we not only must remember where we’ve been, but we must understand where we have been. This calls for a great deal of analytical thinking and evaluation of methods that have been used. We have to begin to think in terms of where do we really want to go and how can we get there.” #ellabaker #tinuketalk #friday #civilrights
Human Family by Maya Angelou
“I note the obvious differences in the human family. Some of us are serious, some thrive on comedy. Some declare their lives are lived as true profundity. Others claim they really live the real reality… I note the obvious differences between each sort and type but we are more alike, my friends, than we are unalike.” #poetry #tinuketalk

“This is precisely the time when artists go to work. There’s no time for despair, no place for self-pity. No need for silence, no room for fear. We speak, we write, we do language. And that is how civilizations heal.” -Toni Morrison
We celebrated my dad’s birthday at @eatwell.philly and the experience was absolutely delicious. This meal reminded me of the Nigerian family parties we used to have when my cousins came to visit Philly from Lagos back in the day. 🇳🇬🥰
I tried the following vegetarian dishes:
🙌🏾🌱Efo elegusi with iyan
🙌🏾🌱dodo
My dad & brother tried these options:
🙌🏾Ayamase with rice
🙌🏾Nigerian triple fusion
🙌🏾Pepper soup
🙌🏾Peppered Snail
🙌🏾Palm wine
The space was a while vibe—from the DJ’s music to the art on the walls. The manager and the dining team did an excellent job of making our time there memorable! I definitely recommend checking this spot out the next time you’re in Old City. Lemme know what dishes you try 🙌🏾
During the month for July, I’m prioritizing self-care 🤍 Here are five ways to add self-care your busy schedule:
1. Take 10 deep breaths 🌬️
2. Stretch for 10 mins. 🧘🏾♀️
3. Say positive affirmations aloud 🗣️
4. Journal for 10 mins. 📝
5. Listen to live music 🎶
What are your favorite self-care habits? Do any of these resonate with you?
I love creating mashups with @hallopeta!! His guitar skills are phenomenal and the harmonies feel effortless 🎶🎸Here’s one that sounds like a lullaby… ”As It Was” + “Take On Me” by @harrystyles and #A-ha
