WHAT IS Buy Martian Merch ™
Posted by C J on
"When MARTIANS buy from my site, they are LITERALLY wearing my experiences on their sleeves. Because my personal experiences are the daily inspo for what they see...what they buy... what WE wear. My heart and my soul goes into these design projects. Whether on my own in my "virtual stu" or via collaborative efforts with my team. Know that I don't say this lightly: EVERY CUSTOMER is helping me tell my story while I help them tell theirs. There's a mutual understanding and a steady peace about this exchange that may be hard for everyone to understand...but we do." - Max
WHERE Is your FIRE? | A Soul's Expression and Tribute to Sonia Sanchez + LoveCraft Country
Posted by C J on
Of these episodes, nothing both spoke to my soul and ripped out my heart simultaneously like the poem "Don't Kill Dub" by Sonia Sanchez (what many have renamed in conversation as "Where Is Your Fire 🔥?").
Robin Coudert did an excellent job encompassing the passion of Sanchez's words, however, Jurnee Smollett and Regina Taylor will immobilize you with emotion 42:59 into episode 09.
Not to be dismissed in this description, understand that Coudert's performance slithers persistently in your ear with a hypnotic melody meant only for the part of your being in tune with achieving legacy and bearing your soul.
They essentially tag team you into submitting your full, mouth-gaping attention, snatching tears from your eyelids and caving your chest in with the emotions of every ancestor who ever endured just so we can be.
Or perhaps that's just me.
