Musings of An African Woman. Where in the World is Kuukua. August 4, 2015. September 14, 2015. Sick and Tired of Being Sick and Tired. Being given a pregnancy test EVERY time I go to see a doctor, no matter the complaint. Being sent home with tylenol when I was passing kidney stones. Being told the manager needed to be called. Being told not everything is about race. Being told as an educated Black woman I had nothing in common with Michael Brown, a thug. Being told that I was not “like them”. Being watc...

https://ewurabasempe.wordpress.com/2014/11/30/what-is-right-just
Musings of An African Woman. Where in the World is Kuukua. November 30, 2014. December 31, 2014. What is Right & Just? We lived in a part of town that was the median between the shi-shi neighborhood and what we would term the slums, though not the worst of what the country has to offer. Grandmother complained often that when she bought her property, she had no idea that it would develop into such a place. She spoke of ruffians and riff-raff often with such indignity. How dare they squat? These questions ...

Anyway, I have to say ...

Musings of An African Woman. Where in the World is Kuukua. August 27, 2014. December 31, 2014. I mean, I know it shouldn’t necessarily be coming from me, but it’s not coming from anywhere else and I care deeply, so I must. I’ve been feeling caught in the middle of demands on my sanity. Was the doctor dismissive because I was a Black woman? Did he think I was taking advantage of the system? Was he sure I was on assistance? The answer is: I will never know.
