I want to be a safe space for the human experience. I want people to be able to get it “wrong” with me, to fuck up and make mistakes without me taking it as a slight. Life is trial and error. I want my love to outweigh my perception of wrongdoings.

Safi Faye passed away yesterday at 80.

A lighthouse, a tapestry, a manifold voice, she was the first continental African woman to make a film.

Faye was an educator and archive, her documentations of especially her Serer community in Senegal are gifts.

Au revoir, Tantie 🤍

Never internalize feedback that fundamentally makes you unsure of who you are. Yes, be teachable and always look out for ways to improve but understand that not everyone is qualified to provide you with the quality of feedback that’s relevant to your growth.
