It rained at the Woke Baby Book Fair, so we brought the joy inside the Children’s Collection at Countee Cullen Library & filled the space w/ rhythm, language, & love to celebrate the Schomburg Center’s Centennial Festival.

Thanks to @mobrowne & authors who shared their hearts.

Today my youngest played the cello beautifully—even if we couldn’t see her from our seats (thanks to a giant piano blocking our view).

But what stood out most? Her big sister, cheering at full volume. She shouted her name and clapped so hard, people turned to look.

Too loud? Maybe. But...

I agree.

I’m bringing the energy of Cesaria Feels the Beat to the Bronx!
Join me on Feb 19th at Union Community Health Center for a lively read-aloud and book signing filled with rhythm, culture, and community! Just like Carnival, this event is about joy and movement. #ReadAloud #DeafAwareness

Excuse me while I process the fact that my teenager just called my Timberlands from 1995 “vintage.”

VINTAGE?? Girl, these boots have stories to tell, and I swear I was just wearing them last week (okay, maybe last decade).

Should I be flattered or offended?
