RAGE AGAINST ORDINARY

Creative Advocate

Welcome to Rage Against Ordinary, my passion project where I curate, celebrate and share the creativity of diverse artists and unique events. Curate. Share. Celebrate.

SELFCARE SUNDAY: Our very presence is questioned BEFORE our performance. 👎🏽

People Are Exhausted From Having to Be Twice as Good.

A lot of Black professionals are tired right now.

Not just from work.

From constantly being expected to stay polished, strategic, grateful, and exceptional while watching conversations around fairness, opportunity, and inclusion slowly disappear.

It is hard to keep pushing in rooms where your presence is questioned before your performance is even measured.

But do not let this moment make you forget who you are.

You can be aware and still ambitious.

Sometimes survival is refusing to shrink just because the room got colder.

Did you know about this history behind the Memorial Day holiday?
