-Even in the midst of, for -!instance, chattel enslavement,
-when Black people -!were in the hull of slave ships,
-we found community, -we found love.
-We found hope.
-We found each other.
-And so for me,
-!that is where I find my desire -to continue.
-It is about being connected
-and in community with -and in loving on each other.
-That is how I see it.
