I thought of the Global North debut of Wanuri Kahiu with Pumzi, her science fiction short.

"Water should be free!"

She opened up about the material realities of funding + distributing African films.
+importance of recentering Black, African-descended folks in African stories.

In the US, it's Black History Month.

Oh, what a dream it would be to be unbothered, to glide, luxuriant, in full sapience + sentience, or at rest, able to thrive or falter with fewer scythes in the rich soil our ancestors fed--

Also, my options for the relation of the will’s author to Lucy don’t cover this situation. ‘Servant’ and ‘Other’ being only non-familial options. Lucy wasn’t a servant; she was an enslaved person. Other is perhaps painfully ironic but not right. Yes, slavery is shameful but masking it now by erasure and obfuscation is not the right path.
