Who are you? What do you stand for? What do you believe in? These are questions we answer every day for others, but never take the time to answer them for ourselves. So then, how do we go about getting those questions answered? Well, let’s start with me. I believe that all children of color should have access to a proper education. They should be taught by people that have a passion for learning and a desire to see them succeed. Therefore I am a teacher.

I believe that all women should be treated with respect and loved. Our women are queens, not b—–s. Our queens are mothers, not baby mamas. Our mothers are faithful to their partners/husbands and those that love them, not hoes. Our mothers are to be protected and not used as punching bags. So, I am an advocate for those who have been beaten, battered, and bruised. The emotional kind, the physical kind, the mental kind, and the verbal kind.

I believe that our children will inherit this earth. Our legacy will not be found in our wealth, but with what our children have learned. Through their health, their love, their light. I am a mother.

This is who I am and so much more. When I look at the mental state for a lot of our black women, it’s easy to see that we don’t know who we are. Also, as a community, we don’t know who we are. That has got to change and the change can start today. We need to stop passing by our sisters on the street like they are nobody. We are not the competition, we are the community. Things I’ve learned growing up have helped to shape me into the woman I am today.

If it weren’t for my beautiful black sister telling me I was too skinny and ugly, I wouldn’t have learned how self-conscious we are.
If it wasn’t for my beautiful black sister betraying our friendship to pursue false happiness with someone I used to love, I wouldn’t have learned how broken hearted we are.
Had it not been for my beautiful black sister shooting down my desire to write while uplifting the traditional career path, I wouldn’t have learned how much society has suppressed our desire to push the envelope and follow our passions.
Lastly, if it weren’t for my beautiful black sister passing me by without notice, I wouldn’t have learned how alone we are in a society that puts us against each other. They tell us that shunning our community will lead us to success. My words are not meant to destroy what has been built, but the rather encourage you to help with this process. So what is the next step? That’s entirely up to you.  Today the choice will be made.

Pamela Coleman is originally from Jackson, MS. She received her B.S. degree in Mass communications from Jackson State University. Deciding not to write for the city newspaper, Pamela wanted to pursue a different passion. After relocating to Texas and now Minnesota, Pamela has found herself in a unique position. Now, a stay at home wife and mother of two, Pamela started blogging about her mental and emotional journey of returning natural in hopes to reach others (curlsandwhatknots.wordpress.com). Her goal is to help as many women and men uplift the natural community and change a mindset that has been passed down for generations. Her daughter was her sole inspiration for returning natural and soon her son inspired her to tap into the mental state of young black boys and their views on the natural community. Understanding she is taking the non- traditional approach, she has decided to homeschool her children with the support of her husband, family, and friends. A novelist by heart, Pamela is also in the process of releasing her first children’s book and novel in 2016. After returning natural, starting a blog, and going vegan, Pamela is now leading the life she feels was purposed for her.
