Porch Swing Series Episode 3A: Lay Your Briefcase Down

Pull up a chair and rest a while. This Friday evening on the porch swing, we are following up on our session about Papa OG to reflect on the habit that drains so much of our daily energy. One of the greatest gifts this project has given me is balancing the objective eye of the archivist with the warm heart of preservation. When I stopped trying to defend my ancestors, I finally became quiet enough to hear them. Tonight is your personal invitation to do the same. Lay your defense briefcase down at the porch steps. Someone has been waiting patiently right here to tell you their story. See you then.Remember our ancestral mantraLove them as a descendant.Preserve them as an archivist.Let the evidence lead us.
