Somewhere in the Lost and Found

I am a Nigerian Jamaican feminista. Brooklyn born and Jersey bred. I'm your Bed-Stuy living, rum loving, public health, international development and women studies nerd. Living by three basic rules: treat everyone as you wish to be treated, appreciate those who love you, and speak your truths. Let everything you do begin and end with love.

Welcome to my world!

"Our wedding was about much, much more than a certificate and a platinum band. It was about two people and two families coming together to celebrate as one. For most of my life as a gay man, I thought I would never have the opportunity to get married, and so I wrote the whole wedding thing off as some silly ritual. Yet given the window of opportunity in 2008 to say “I do,” I did—with the enthusiasm of the fiercest Bridezilla."

Newsweek & The Daily Beast editor David Jefferson writes on his four gay marriages—and the significance of his one wedding, a human rite of passage. (via newsweek)
