Introduction | I am the third oldest of ten siblings. Me and two of my older siblings, Betty and Freddie, were born in Hawkinsville, GA in the same house that our mother was raised in with her parents and siblings. We were all delivered by our Aunt Judy Bell, who was the local midwife. Our amazing mother has managed to hold onto 33 acres of that same land which she has now passed on to me and five of my siblings. I am a Unitarian Universalist minister and former social worker and teacher(graduate of University of Michigan) and research activist (Clark Atlanta University). I currently work at Meadville Lombard Theological School as the Director of Contextual Ministry and Senior Lecturer. I live in Chicago, IL where I have resided since 2007. Previously I lived in Charlotte, NC for seven years and prior to that in Atlanta for thirty five years on and off. I grew up in Detroit, MI. I expect to retire in about ten years and thus I am beginning to think about what that means as it relates to Hawkinsville and building a home for myself on our ancestral land. I have three adult children, Libra, Kaleema, Muhammad and one grandson, Brandon and a cat named Lily. |

You get to ride the big roller coaster three times in a row. What will keep your dad from taking a bite out of your candy apple?
I have no idea!
