Captain America: Brave New World – A Hero’s Journey Against All Odds Journal Prompt: What are three things I can do this week to take care of myself? Listen below or o n your favorite streaming platform Captain America: Brave New World starting with Anthony Mackie and Harrison Ford was released in theaters on February 14th.

Listen below or on your favorite streaming platform   I just finished the last season of Harlem and I am sad. I am sad because it was so good and now it has come to an end.

I found this series to be fun and entertaining while touching on some real-life concerns that professional black w...

I need to rest and focus on me and doing me and growing me and enjoying me. If there was ever a time to take rest as resistance it is now because I am tired!  For the rest of the parts, we will look into my favorite quotes from the book. For a review of the book and my thoughts, please return to part 1 ( Rest is Resistance The Book Review Part 1 ) .  Mind you these quotes are pulled from the introduction where Hersey introduces us to the four tenets of the nap ministry. These four tenets are: Rest is a form of resistance because it disrupts and pushes back against capitalism and white supremacy.  Our bodies are a site of liberation.  Naps provide a portal to imagine, invent, and h...
