3/ The public launch is in two days, BUT for you guys I can give you a key that lets you in early 🤫. You can test the app, use the free resource materials, and perhaps even buy a book or two for your library. I already picked out a title i’ve been wanting to read for a while for JUST#5,000👀👀!!
I love that this is driving a conversation about wanting more joyful stories. I was part of the @afroromcon team this year and our theme was “Love as Resistance.” The point of it was to show that love, joy and other parts exists in our literature and we examined it. It was a joyous project and this was one of my favorite slides. Point is, we have African joy despite the trauma. Or rather, in spite of the trauma. That’s why I love all the love Call of My Life keeps getting. That’s why I can happily recommend Heart Analytics. African joy exists in life and also in literature. Let’s platform our joy. PS: If perhaps you’re looking for recommendations on books that platform African Joy, I may be able to draw up a list.
African Literature is not trauma porn. It’s more than that. I finally made a video on this and to be honest, it’s been a long time coming.
And you are correct
