Reading, being a junior cultural critic and theorist in the making, going to school, teaching, being a mommy, being a wifey, and living my life.I recently started a program at Lafayette Jefferson High School for black female students call The Tarajia Project. Check out the site--http://tarajiaproject.home.insightbb.com! I love my girls. Check 'em out!
I'd like to meet:
All the "need to know" scholars in American Studies, African American Studies, Cultural Studies, & Gender Studies. I'm on that right now. I bet I know who YOU want to meet (if you haven't already)...look at my beautiful li'l babies! Classic.
Music:
I love hip hop, R&B, alternative rock, pop, and some other stuff. I guess you could say I'm eclectic.
Movies:
Are we movie
compatible? My Flixster
profileThis could go on forever--Pulp Fiction, Sin City, Imitation of Life, Arsenic and Old Lace, Guys and Dolls, Jason's Lyric, Love Jones, A Bronx Tale, and definitely some more. But wait, after all this time, how could I forget to mention that we are horror movie fanatics! I like all the Saw movies, the new Texas Chainsaw Massacre flicks, the new Hill Have Eyes flicks, and lots more!
