Happy Black Music Month! Words, beats and lyrics move me. This past week, I went to see The GZA and he did not disappoint. His music, stage presence and ‘Liquid Swords’ was just what I needed on a Monday night.

The United States of Trauma

Separation from family and friends during ’Pandemic 2020’ has made me feel empty and unable to socialize. In March, I started buying flowers as a way of adding a little bit of outside in my home. I would sip my boozy coffee while thinking about how much an ambivert like me missed chatting with people and absorbing their energy. After weekly posts of my coffee and flowers, my network encouraged me to create a space in which we can chat and reconnect the way we do over cocktails. Thus, ’Weekend Coffee Guh’ was born.
