Do you guys remember that post where I asked about me writing non black people?

I can't remember how long ago that was, maybe last year. But since that time, I've become more aware of my race and African Americans accomplishments in various fields.

In the past few days I've been looking for black women writers, artists, and other stuff like that. I want to know more about black womanhood from various points of view. I want to know more about our history.

So I wanted to write about that. I'm saying I'm not going to write about various people but I want to focus on my people too.

And I've been thinking about volunteering. There's a Junior Women's League here in Shreveport that looks perfect for me but you have to be 24 to join...I turn 23 this year haha. But I'm going to keep it in mind.

I've been looking at some of bell hooks books. I found this series of videoes and I really agree with a lot of the things she says.
