Things James Baldwin Said That Stuck With Me
Baldwin captures the Black experience in 1963, and here we are in 2025, still resonating with every word. That’s heartbreaking. That’s infuriating. That’s the reality. Read it. Feel it. Pass it on. #TheFireNextTime #JamesBaldwin #RequiredReading #BookReview #ReadBlackAuthors #boo

Why you should read JAMES BALDWIN🖤
I read my first James Baldwin a few years ago and immediately fell in love. He was such a talented writer with the ability to craft both fiction and nonfiction work. My most recent Baldwin was The Fire Next Time and it blew me away. I can’t wait to read more of his work. Up next: Giovanni’s Room

Ways we are showing our faith in our wedding ✝️
1. One of my grandfathers who is deeply into our faith has been ordained and will be marrying us, and praying over our marriage. 2. For our union ceremony we are doing a cord of three strands which originally represents the joining of God, a husband, and a wife, into one tight bond together.
