hiii sunshine,
Thank you for being here! My name is Ayanda and I believe we
are living in the colonizers' imagination of reality. I seek to make
content that helps give language to the violent realities imposed
on us by white colonial imaginations. I also seek to provide
upliftment generally and vibe with you on the internet ;)
The most frequent question I get is: what do you read, listen to,
watch?! So here is my attempt to answer that. To be honest, I
struggled to create this. I couldn't quite pinpoint when it all
began. While I have included explicit texts, I feel that growing up
in South Africa was my earliest education into what it meant
for an entire society to be rooted in the violent myth of white
supremacy, apartheid, and white settler colonial rule.
Love,
Ayanda
