I'm Such an AFROholic

Inside the mind of a kind of quirky, pretty stubborn, way too opinionated, twenty-something, heteroflexible Black female newly employed up-and-moved-to-DC Princeton GRADUATE who's just trying to sort out her life. An uninhibited celebration of all that is me, this blog is an exercise in self-discovery and live-with-your-heart-wide-open-ness. Though I make respect a habit, I will not always be politically correct, and I believe in the power of making audiences uncomfortable to inspire change.

About Me

One of the best things Disney ever taught me was that my voice is my most prized possession and I should never let anyone silence me, particularly not evil grey half-human half-inky-black-squid witches. So here it is, folks, my thoughts, my words, my voice, uncensored and unabridged.
