ORANGE

Black Spoken Word Artiste Yvonne Akeba in orange


Yvonne Akeba, orange is your color, but why? Why is often left out of the observations, and the compliments you receive. Orange is your color for several reasons; chief of which is the ability of the Black of your skin to arise and say its poetry to the accompaniment of the song, the sound of your smile dancing to the essence of your being. Orange against the Black of your skin says you have the firm grasp within you on what is important. You are present in the Earth, our Mother, and what that means is expressed in the relationship to colors African women possess. Each color says something different from the others. Colors come from different places, and have different experiences to share, and reasons to compliment who you are with other colors known to the world.

 The color orange is wholesomeness. It is the bold nature of being dark skinned and beautiful of face, and form. For you orange compliments the birth processes you went through to get from there to here enabling you to be present with the Creator when you are touching the core entity of Feminine Energies with words.


Yes, orange becomes you because it says, “You are magnificent.” – Gregory E. Woods Oct. 28, 2012
