Micas Delivery

Hey y’all, how have you been? I’ve been working, going through old things and facing some serious challenges. There are religious and cultural wars going on and it seems people want to be at war with me. I have always loved fashion and art, but it seems when I paint or create …there is a battle. I try not to become some kind of ‘angry black woman’ but domestic violence, rape, assault, and abuse should never be widely promoted or accepted. 

I find myself asking questions as to why government or the police would ignore such a thing. But, yea, all is not bad. I recently became a fan of Micas even though the first time I ordered from them, my package was lost. They have some cute clothing, great for the summer. 

What have yall been up to? Are you getting these vibes from the world as well?

Sincerely,

“Fashionably-Late”

Happy Saturday. This sketch came to me recently. I don’t know if it’s other worlds speaking to me or just an idea. I am unfortunately a victim of domestic violence and I heard it was on the rise with the coronavirus pandemic lockdown. Couples should not hit, threaten, rape, assault or exhaust one another. Don’t get me wrong, I definitely believe in self-defense and justice. The angry emoji shows some of the anger and resentment that I have. But, hey, we are all a work in progress. 

We all must remember that intimate partner and family relationships are precious. And, they should be treated that way.

What do you think about the rise in domestic violence and how do you like the drawing? Let me know in the comments and have a good rest of your weekend.

Sincerely,
