Greetings Everyone,
I have started a community organization (Bi)aspora to help increase Bi visibility.
I am excited, nervous and not sure what I am doing, but I have felt led to work on enhancing Bi visibility for a while now. If you are Bi or an ally, please follow us on twitter (see link below) and you can also email us at biaspora@gmail.com. I will also be starting a facebook page soon. Here is our basic mission statement and also the info on what will be the (Bi)aspora Launch Campaign Initiative! Looking forward to connecting with folks from around the world to share our stories and experiences!
love to you all!~imani uzuri #blissfullybi

Absolutely thrilled to be included amongst women composers featured in this week’s The New Yorker!!! Just got my hard copy hot off the presses!! Gratitude to composer foremothers like the late great Dr. Undine Smith Moore (25 August 1904-6 February 1989) who paved the musical path with radiance, tenacity, genius and brilliance!!! I celebrate and honor their majestic ever shining light as I continue to learn to soar!!! ~imani uzuri #bliss
