I just finished watching the Rihanna / Diana Sawyer interview. I am late in seeing the interview, but I am happy I took the time to find it online. I respect Rhianna for being truthful about going back to Chris Brown then realizing her mistake and ending the relationship. From the interview it sounds like Rhianna let her pride get in the way of putting herself first. As women, it is soo difficult for us to put ourselves first. I find myself taken care of people around me, better than I take care of myself.
Speaking of Rhianna, I had an impromptu trip to sunny Barbados. Unfortunately it rained, and Rhianna was not there to shield me from the rain with her umbrella, umbrella, eh. Kidding aside, I had a great time on my second trip to the small nation.
Country Side
We spent a lot of our time in the country on the family’s farm. When we weren’t on the farm, we were visiting friends and family. I did not meet one female relative or family friend with natural hair.

I finally saw Chris Rock’s Good Hair documentary.
One of the movie previews was Precious based on Sapphire’s book Push. When I read that book in high school, my perception of life changed. That movie/book highlights serious issues we have in our community such as child abuse, and self-hatred. I hated reading the book because it was so painful. By the end, I did believe there is hope. I am definitely going to support this movie by going to see it!

I spend my weekend with my beautiful girlfriend Stacy in Hampton Roads. We spend our Saturday at the
AFR’AM Festival. African-American cultural festival held annually during Memorial Day weekend, and the Summer Arts Workshop for children and youth, which offers instruction in the performing arts. Celebrating more than 25 years of African-American culture and fine arts, the Southeastern Virginia Arts Association (SEVAA) is proud to continue its tradition of hosting the state’s premier African-American festival. The Southeastern Virginia Arts Association (SEVAA) inaugurated AFR’AM FEST on Memorial Day weekend, 1983. Today AFR’AM FEST has grown to become one of the largest African-American cultural celebrations on the East coast.

Yesterday I attend the Happily Natural Day here in Richmond, Virginia. It was a blast with a lot of vendors, and people with the same goal of loving yourself!! I made three trips to the event. The first I forgot my camera and ran back home. I finally took some pictures. Then I had friends come in from Philadelphia, so we went back to the Natural Hair Day. Then I dropped my camera—I can’t get it to work :o(
Tomorrow is the big day, Happily Natural Day here in Richmond, Virginia.
I hope to see you there! Please let me know if you will be attending so I can look for you! I will be wondering around looking at all the vendors, and learning from all the workshops. I will have an update soon with all the pictures that I took from the event.
Talk to you soon…
Peace, Love and Shea Butter
