Faith, Fashion and Politics
So this was something I’ve been thinking about over the past few weeks and it’s such a vast topic to get into. When it comes to race, where does the church come in? Should POC avoid Christianity?

MoreNo seriously, you really don’t. If you needed a friendly reminder of that, here it is. First and foremost, I do support people using what they love to support and sustain themselves. It’s creative, it’s smart, it’s strategic. But when you’re doing 20 different things at once to get some cash on the side and […]
