Marpessa Kupendua is an internet warrior, who, with lightning keystrokes, fights racists, rednecks and dragons – and she has been doing so for years.
She and I, and her husband Jahfree, have known each other since our young adulthood.
And she has been, and is, this movement’s Ida B. Wells-Barnett-writer, agitator, organizer, journalist, and activist –rebel.
That’s who she is: rebel. And we are blessed to have her –her fire, her brilliance, her intelligence, her strong, unshakable will.
Her work reaches thousands and thousands of people the world over, with the speed of light, and the power of right!
Sista Marpessa –you go girl! Thank you for all you do, and all you are!
Strength. Power. Energy.
