In today's world, there's a notable resurgence in spiritual exploration that diverges from the mainstream New Age culture. People are seeking clarity that aligns with their own ancestral lineage, and ancestral veneration has emerged as a powerful avenue to navigate life's complexities. For Black communities, this resurgence represents a reclamation of hope for the diaspora. In this book, Ifa and Orisa priestess Ehime Ora shares the importance of connection to the ancestors, and to one’s spiritual roots.

A Generational Love Offering
Revisado: 03-12-24
Imagine Freedom is a transformative treasure that I didn't know my spirit needed. Rahiel takes listeners on a freedom journey towards liberation. A three part exploration of resilience (reclamation of power and trauma healing), resistance (the souls battle with capitalism, impact of the media, the need for uprising, pan-African diasporic solidarity), and redemption (the power of self-determination, love, and faith). A love letter to the African Diaspora. The book is a guide for all those in search of a better way of living and being, regardless of your race or faith.
The audible reading by the author, breathes life to the written word found on each page, even after reading the book - I found myself going back to underline concepts and questions I missed. The pain and joy captured throughout the audible reading of the book kept me inspired and hopeful along the way as the author challenges listeners to consider and explore complex societal issues and their own truth.
I would highly recommend both the audible and book.

Now Zélie has one chance to bring back magic and strike against the monarchy.

From a leading journalist and activist comes a brave, beautifully wrought memoir. When Darnell Moore was 14, three boys from his neighborhood tried to set him on fire. He escaped, but just barely. It wasn't the last time he would face death. Three decades later, Moore is an award-winning writer, a leading Black Lives Matter activist, and an advocate for justice and liberation. In No Ashes in the Fire, he shares the journey taken by that scared, bullied teenager who not only survived, but found his calling.

Powerful & Brilliant
Revisado: 06-23-18
No Ashes in the Fire is a powerful coming of age memoir that depicts the reality of being black & free in America. Darnell does an amazing job authentically connecting his audience to his complex reality. He offers deep insight and honest candor of navigating life in America as a liberated non-conforming black man.
Each sentence carefully constructs a visual narrative of our individual struggles, while tackling the power dynamics of race, gender, and economic exclusion.
I don't do book reviews but this was a solid summer selection. I highly recommend you check it out!
