    Growth

    “There is always something to do. There are hungry people to feed, naked people to clothe, sick people to comfort and make well.

    This Should Be Interesting ….

    Somehow, I knew it would come to this. Constant watery eyes, blurred vision, and a deep passion for reading and writing, even when there’s not sufficient light (dangit you smart phone screens). Why am I not surprised that I need glasses? I haven’t gone in yet, but I do believe I’m nearsighted. I’ll definitely have… Continue reading

    Blogger Support: Fact or Fiction?

    That one follower who likes every one of your posts no matter what it is. Ever wonder if it’s real? Yea, me too. No, I don’t believe in fake followers.

    Yours, Not Mine

    “What, to the American slave, is your 4th of July? I answer a day that reveals to him, more than all other days in the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim. To him, your celebration is a sham: your boasted liberty, an unholy license: your national greatness, swelling… Continue reading

    10 Commandments Statue Must be Removed from State Capitol

    For those of you who know me, you know I like symbolism and this story is very symbolic to me. For the record I’m not a Christian so this is not about religion, it’s deeper than that. They are removing a statue that is representative of the 10 commandments. Interesting. Let that marinate. Link to… Continue reading

About Me

My name is Yecheilyah (e-see-li-yah), and my work confronts historical erasure and advocates for a more inclusive understanding of Black history. Through my literature and poetry, I uncover and preserve the rich, often underrepresented stories of African Americans. I also host an annual poetry contest.
