The one thing that could not be taken or hoodwinked from "us" is the language of the body and the memory stored in the wail. Despite it all, our bodies will always remember what to say at the end of a day or the beginning of something other than this. And when our bodies have said it all we wail or when our wails are unanswered our blood remembers to keep on. This new Lookit Flick entitled "BLOOD SWEAT AND BOOGIE" celebrates what we've been and what our bodies won't let us forget. :: : Lookit Here :: :
Excerpt from White Lies-Black Sheep, by Hanifah Walidah: And blood remembers. All of it. All of it is in us and all of it willbe remembered. Everytime we are made to forget what we started our blood remembers. Everytime we revive them with our sweat, our blood remember. Everytime something we held slips through our grips, our blood remembers and we pass it down...somehow we pass it down because one day it all will come back and somebody will have to remember that it was ours. - Hanifah Walidah
