Why I Love Black Women

So I'm reading a new book entitled Why I Love Black Women, by the great Michael Eric Dyson. In this book he shows his appreciation towards African American women. I have no yet to finish the book. But he express his love, so sincerly. He talks about many inspiartional women that played a major role in his life and in society back then, and in society now. Why I love black women is turning out to be a self proclaimed book as of for me. Teaching me to better value black African American today! Teaching me, beacause I am a black woman in America, many people can see my, and our, intelligence, courage, beauty, and strenght. He is uplifting black African American spirits!

This book is a must READ!

Tutwiler, Mississippi

"Habitat for Humanity."

This is a picture of a group of friends and I. We join thumbs together. (Idea from LIGHT) Symbolizing trust, unity, and one.

Three of the hands are people from Mississippi and Texas. And the other two are from California.

I think the picture is cool, because of the flash on my camera made the picture bright, capturing our true hand tone. (pretty funny)

Justice!

I thought this was pretty influential.
It puts me in a mindset of unity.
Coming together as community.
There is nothing better than that.

I Love This Game.

Do you remember this game?

Hop Scotch! 

You throw a bean bag down and whatever number/box it lands on you hop to it.

I member those days! At recess, having a bunch of fun for about 30 minutes top! 

I love hoe the shadow of the little girl get captured in the picture.

Honestly I don't think about what I capture in the picture until I took the picture.

HNU bench part 4


Window Picture...



I took this picture while sitting in english class.
I thought that it would pretty different.
As you can see, you really can not view the benches from a far.
I wanted to capture the benches from a different angle and place.
So what better way too...

The Bench Part: 3

Again another day...
"Spring Time" ladies and gents.
Spring time at and with the famous HNU benches.
I took this picture below the benches, right in front of the Crush Library. 

*****
I decided to take this picture from a far to capture the benches in a abstract way. (If i may say that.)
I feel when you capture a picture from a distance you sometimes, may get deeper in depth. 

*****
Well once again, another day at the benches. I say take advantage of the benches especially during the "Spring Time."

The Bench Part: 2


 Another day, another blessing.
Another Scene of greatness created by God. 
The Benches of Holy Names University.

Today I decided to take a new approach with my camera phone. (I am actually using a camera phone.) I journey to the Mass and snap a shot from the top. There I was able to capture the essence of the benches and how they look when from a far. 

As you look, you can see the alignment and the shadow reflection of the benches. And the color contrast with the trees and the scenery all around. Deep greens and light greens. 

Again the benches of HNU are a place where you can go get a peace of mind from long hours of class that you may or may not had enjoyed. I deeply encourage all to go pay the Great benches of HNU a visit, I know it won't do you justice. 

-blessed.
