The System Will Not Have My Soul. I Will Not Lose My Soul (w/ Brittany Janay)
“We will not lose our souls.” Brittany Janay offers a loving affirmation, a reminder that even as we exist in systems not created with us in mind, we have the choice (and responsibility) to stay true to our values and community. She shares her thoughts on the difference between assimilation & code-switching and healthy adaptation, calling attention to what it means to use our power and honor our own complexity in lieu of losing our souls. She uses a historical anecdote, referencing the experiences of slave preachers and conjurers, and offers it as possibility for us– what it means to exist “IN” a system while still being “FOR” our people.
