Introduction	WELCOME to "Persimmon & Maple" I hope you enjoy my blog and find it inspirational, on point, angering to action and even out and out hilarious! I am the daughter, grand daughter and great grand daughter of Southern folk. I love my people, our stories and believe they should be told. This blog will attempt to do just that along with my own discourse on the happenings of today. I am an activist, womanist, artist and doctoral student at the Graduate Theological Union at Berkeley. Yep - I am one of those preacher-scholar-artist-activist types! I am an Itinerant Elder in the African Methodist Episcopal Church, Lover of Black Vernacular, books, #GirlTrek (www.girltrek.org) enthusiast and Carrie's Touch. Inc (www.carriestouch.org). Thanks again, for checking out Persimmon & Maple.
