I did not let people tell me what to do, and I never wanted to be a groupie.

I'm still a tomboy at heart. In high school, I was the girl in the baggy jeans and Timberlands, but I was also at the hairdresser's every week.
amazing heard kinds listen marley obsessed people
I listen to every thing, all kinds of stuff. I've been obsessed with the Nas and Damian Marley record, 'Distant Relatives.' I feel like a lot of people haven't heard it, and it's amazing.

I've been involved in social activism my entire life, and I would argue that many people involved in social activist movements have done very little work on themselves.
beauty calling connect dream home people poetry
My dream is that people will find a way back home, into their bodies, to connect with the earth, to connect with each other, to connect with the poor, to connect with the broken, to connect with the needy, to connect with people calling out all around us, to connect with the beauty, poetry, the wildness.
