The Self Love Files is the ultimate guide to rebuilding your self-love foundation to help you become the best, most sparkly version of yourself.
Born out of a deep dive into shadow work of self-healing, Ifoma Genevieve recognized the need to strengthen her foundation of self and relearn how to be her own best friend. All shadow work is difficult, made more so without a foundation of self-love and acceptance. Throw into the mix comparison, and other people's opinions, and you have a perfect storm to foster anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and self-worth. Ifoma knew that breaking this cycle, change had to come from within. In The Self Love Files, you'll learn why self-love is monumental in changing your life, why it is non-negotiable if you want to level up in life, and why it is the foundation for our human growth, Period. We can only be our best and whole selves when we are willing to look at our light, dark and everything in between. The Self Love Files is a guide back to your authentic, loving self. You were born to thrive. Give yourself permission to fly! |

"Time Traveler's Digest: An Anthology" is an intriguing collection of stories, essays, and poems about traveling through time presented by first-time author, Damien Lamar Robinson.
This book presents the wisdom of the ages and places a strong emphasis on balance and harmony while exploring narratives and letters of time travelers throughout history, from 36,000 B.C. to 3000 A.D. "Time Traveler's Digest" is an effective instrument for social reform in a world in which racism is still prevalent. It encourages us to embrace diversity and a lack of bias while simultaneously encouraging us to question the preconceived notions and biases that we hold. It serves as a good reminder that regardless of our race or ethnicity, we are all members of the same species, the human race, and that we are connected to one another through the threads of time and history. As you flip through the pages of "Time Traveler's Digest," allow yourself to be motivated to take action. Take a stand against racism, be an advocate for the protection of history, and work towards making the world a place where diversity is celebrated; and every culture is accorded the acknowledgement and respect it deserves. Let's take a trip through history together, and as we do, let's work together to create a future that is just as multifaceted and welcoming as the ancestry from which it is derived.

A dramatic expansion of a groundbreaking work of journalism, The 1619 Project: A New Origin Story offers a profoundly revealing vision of the American past and present.
In late August 1619, a ship arrived in the British colony of Virginia bearing a cargo of twenty to thirty enslaved people from Africa. Their arrival led to the barbaric and unprecedented system of American chattel slavery that would last for the next 250 years. This is sometimes referred to as the country’s original sin, but it is more than that: It is the source of so much that still defines the United States. The New York Times Magazine’s award-winning “1619 Project” issue reframed our understanding of American history by placing slavery and its continuing legacy at the center of our national narrative. This new book substantially expands on that work, weaving together eighteen essays that explore the legacy of slavery in present-day America with thirty-six poems and works of fiction that illuminate key moments of oppression, struggle, and resistance. The essays show how the inheritance of 1619 reaches into every part of contemporary American society, from politics, music, diet, traffic, and citizenship to capitalism, religion, and our democracy itself. The 1619 Project speaks directly to our current moment, contextualizing the systems of race and caste that still define so much of American life today. It reveals the hidden truths around our nation’s founding and construction—and the way that the legacy of slavery did not end with emancipation, but continues to shape contemporary American life.

* to be mindful of mental, emotional, spiritual health and well-being we're splitting this reading and discussion into two parts. Let's take our time with this book; it deserves our undivided attention. We owe it to ourselves to give ourselves permission to allow this information to properly sink in, settle, and digest so we can talk all about it. Join us for one or both discussions. Both will be different, interesting, amazing.
