Hi Everyone,

I was recently contacted by Kathryn Buford, one of the creators of Live Unchained. She and her co-creator Miriam Moore have set up a virtual community and are developing a multi-media anthology for and by black women across the African Diaspora.

I feel so honored and humbled to be profiled alongside some of the most phenomenal women on their site like Nigerian author and professor Nnedi Okorafor and would like to share my interview and Live Unchained's amazing project with you guys!

You can access my interview with Live Unchained here. And you can check out other interesting profiles and works on the Live Unchained Blog. I hope you guys find their project as amazing as I have, and please share with interested individuals!

Much love,
Jemila

Today I took a bold step
To axe off that which kept me in bondage
Draining my pockets with that promise
The deceit of looking sexy and beautiful
And that it was the only way to

Today I took a bold step
To chop of that silky black straight hair
I'm unable to maintain
I can't keep up with
Because I can't afford to

I embrace the hairvolution
I welcome my short natural hair
:-)
