Jamie Lou, Storyteller

If you’re a book lover, movie lover, sensitive creature, justice seeker, artistic spirit…you belong here. Let’s connect and share our favorite books/movies!

I’ll go first. I recently watched Bob Trevino Likes It starring Barbie Ferreira and John Leguizamo and LOVED it! How about you?

Surround yourself with the kind of people who support their local independent bookstore.

Is anyone else not in the mood to capitalism this season? (Sighs in class consciousness)

Where are the photos of the shareholders responsible for the 💀 of over 68,000 people? I believe 1 < 68k
Go protect the public from the real danger, NYPD!

Sharing our stories is a crucial part of our rebellion from oppression. Keep telling your stories. In long conversations, in written word, in songs and poems, in dance and sign language. In all of the languages. We need your words of strength, triumph, rebellion, and love. ❤️‍🔥

Love this!!! You look magnificent in the back of that horse 💕

A paragraph from Ta-Nehisi Coates' book The Message, which reads: "It may seem strange that people who have already attained a position of power through violence invest so much time in justifying their plunder with words. But even plunderers are human beings whose violent ambitions must contend with the guilt that gnaws at them when they meet the eyes of their victims. And so a story must be told, one that raises a wall between themselves and those they seek to throttle and rob."

Ta-Nehisi Coates wields words like sledgehammers.
