God spoke to me, and surprised me, through my own words as well as the words of a colleague this past week.

What This Year’s Black History Month Taught Me About Protest and Poetry

February 25, 2021July 6, 2021 ~ melanieweldonsoiset ~ Leave a comment

This year, I've celebrated Black History Month by learning from Black artists and poets, past present, and future. The more I learn, the more I want to learn.

My name is Melanie, and I’ve worn many labels over the years: poet, pastor, teacher, student, immigrant, #ChurchToo survivor. I’ve learned, however, that the label that fits best is “child of God.” One day that phrase will be my epitaph. Until then, you’ll find me at my best resting in a hammock, biking on local DC green ways, or enjoying a fire by the hearth on a cold winter’s night.
