Alafia good people:
I am an African-American woman who lives in a multi-racial, multicultural world.
I changed the paradigm from "the melting plot" where all the colors are poured into one gray mass, to that of the" Earth's Bouquet." In the bouquet, each flower has its own shape, size, scent, and color. Each is honored for its beauty. But then I put these different flowers on a bed of green leaves (Our Earth) and the relationship to that green and each other is even more beautiful. So my writing shows the richness of our diversity. I would love to converse with you about this. Thanks. L. Teish
