I had the pleasure of interviewing upcoming spoken word, actor and role model Solomon Adams. Solomon, I first met at a music video shoot for an artist "Conrad Kira". The track was called "Robot". Solomon is anything, but a robot, he is a man full of autonomy, drive, desire and dedication to his craft.

A blessed soul dancing within an exceptional body. ------What inspires you? Love, life, passion, great art and the presence of people who keep on moving forward when life throws its jabs, hooks and uppercuts and who continue to create authentically and express themselves wholeheartedly. -----What inspired your EP?

Dave covers sociopolitical topics of domestic abuse, the racist representations, stereotypes of black people in the media outlets. Colonialism even comes into the play showing that the b...
To my left is Martina Big, a German model and actress known for her extremely large breast implants, born 17 May 1988. In January 2017, Big had a medical treatment that transformed her into what is seen to be a black woman. Martina Big travelled to Kenya, where a local clergyman baptized her and, where by her own testimony was declared her to be a "true African woman." She was baptised in February 2018 renamed as Malaika Kubwa. Her baptismal name Malaika Kubwa; in Swahili, Malaika means angel and kubwa mean big. I begin this as Shaun Flores, I am trans logic, formerly of the social justice warrior variation. I have now become part of the trans logic community. We report from the lense of the transracial woman Martina Adam. Why this is important is due to a new social justice movement tagging alongside a newly emerging trend of t...
