eleventy seven reporters reporting on nothing

by Raw Dawg Buffalo Now it is a very sad conundrum, the aftermath of the Earthquake. Seeing people dead in the streets, maimed, injured and dying is enough to make ones flesh crawl. It was devastation that I could not imagine. Now with that said, I don’t want folks to take this the wrong way albeit I don’t care – but what good is relief and news coverage if it only parades folks for the purpose of individual attention and ratings. What little I saw gave me this opinion and this as a man who has worked in places all over Africa stopping infectious disease pandemics in small rural communities....

pgp179: Nobella adorns Violet

Nobella’s talent has cultivated the Garden since the beginning. Indeed, she styled and adorned three of the first four EarthSistas and her vision as an Artist has heavily influenced the look, the feel, the very essence of the Garden. She is one of Pangea’s visionary seeds. A child of the Big Easy, Patricia Nobella claims, ” I came out of the womb painting.” It was as innate to her as breathing and she envisioned no other path for her in life other than one that flowed through the aesthetic of colors, textures, and even precious metals. Patricia demonstrates a passion for...

Kirei Na…a virtual seduction

Mid-afternoon seemed the perfect time for  a good book. This was Kirei Na’s thought when she received a very interesting instant message on my laptop. It was haunting, provocative with a touch of humor. It was an intimate tease sent over miles wire and broadcast airwaves and it captured her imagination. Feeling a little naughty herself, this seemed like the perfect opportunity for a little passionate self-expression, as well as a chance to please the mysterious someone she cared for. So, with a moment of gleeful thought, Kirei went into action. Bathed in sunlight, diffused by the wispy sheer...

Love from my favorite Blacque Widow Doll

I’ve been having a wonderful back-and-forth with the founder of BlacqueWidowDolls.com, Jinga Willis. She and I both had visions of paying homage to the unique and extraordinary beauty of women of color. And while we take different approaches, it is inspiring to see that we both have no problems breaking through the limitations of a Eurocentric aesthetic to redefine the standards that allows the blesssings we know to be seen by all. I’ve learned so much from her and she has inspired me in ways she is not even aware of at this point. Soon we will do an interview with her about her site...

20 Questions with Ryka

Quite by nature but never shy. Open-minded, friendly, humble and innately artistic are all attributes that describe Ryka, a petite EarthSista with an upbeat edge. Because she is coy and gracious, it can take a moment for her to share but its worth the wait. Self-driven and adventurous, Ryka’s love of writing and painting along with fashion design and photography are aspects that indicate that she marches to the beat of her own drum. Surrounded by a positive and loving family environment, she was nurtured to be an independent go-getter who is not afraid to be caring and loving. Ryka is also a...

Men & Natural Hair

Image from Essence.com By Naturally Leslie So one topic that tends to come up over and over again on hair blogs is related to how men view our natural hair. I personally have never had an issue with this since all of my serious relationships happened after I had been natural for quite a while. But I know many women are very concerned with either attracting a man or keeping the one they have once they go from relaxed to natural hair. My personal opinion is that if you’re single, you’ll attract men who like natural hair. But if you’re already in a relationship, while you should...

Haiti Relief…

a word from Wyclef Jean on the earthquake in Haiti “Haiti today faced a natural disaster of unprecedented proportion, an earthquake unlike anything the country has ever experienced. The magnitude 7.0 earthquake – and several very strong aftershocks – struck only 10 miles from Port-au-Prince. I cannot stress enough what a human disaster this is, and idle hands will only make this tragedy worse. The over 2 million people in Port-au-Prince tonight face catastrophe alone. We must act now. President Obama has already said that the U.S. stands ‘ready to assist’ the Haitian people. The...

pgp178: … and the story continues

And the story continues…. “Pangaea’s Garden is the sanctuary for striking images that pay homage to the exotic beauty of that Earth Sista that was always close to home. This is a place for the art, images and culture that capture the sensuous harmony of the earthbound soul. The works featured here can be created by anyone who has an appreciation for the aesthetic. Feel free to join us in cultivating the garden. Lets help the project to grow.” That was the our statement in the beginning. On the blog on blogspot. It started with a story about woman who thought the brothers were...

The Cosmic Egg, Serpent and The Enlightening Orgasm

By Makeda Voletta Sexual energy is our creative and vital life force energy.   The health of our internal organs is a direct reflection of the potency of our sexual chi.  This is why cultivating our sexual energy is so vital for our mental, emotional, spiritual and physical health.  All indigenous people had sacred sexual practices; however, the most well known are the Taoist practices from China and Tantra from India.  Both have divine feminine roots.  They ascend from the darkness.  It is impossible to separate sacred sexuality and the Goddess.  Throughout many ancient traditions you...
