Anyone else fascinated by geneology, motherlines, haplogroups and the mitochondrial DNA?! I poured over church records. Marriage certificates. Birth certificates death certificates.

Lemme try posting this again since TT wants to take down this video for “violations” QUEEEEEE Cumbia the sound beloved by so many Latinos across the globe was birthed as an act of resistance. Defiance. The African drums and indigenous sounds of La Gaita tell a story of survival. One of my favorite ways to honor the ancestors is to blast cumbia and dance. And yes I’m very proud and honored to say I too come from this part of the world and this sound is in my dna The drums and gaita take over and you can’t help but to move #dance #Cumbia #History #colombia #latina

The Origin Story of Cumbia. The ultimate act of resistanc and survival. A testament of Powerful strength. One of my favorite ways to honor the ancestors is to blast cumbia and dance #dance #cumbia #hispanicheritagemonth #diaspora #history

Did you know that when Tesla was a boy he saw a picture of Niagara Falls and had a dream that a giant wheel was harnessing its power. In 1893 he turned that dream into a reality. He won a bid with Westinghouse to create the first ever hydroelectric power station. He transformed the world. Before this electricity only traveled one mile. It didn’t surprise me too much that names such as JP Morgan and Vanderbilt were behind his funding. With a flip of a switch Teslas invention powered the city of Buffalo located 23 miles away. Something that seemed impossible before. “My brain is a receiver. In the universe there is a core from which we obtain knowledge, strength and inspiration. I have not penetrated the secrets of this core, but I know that it exists.” — Nikola Tesla #tesla #niagarafalls #energy #dreams #nikolatesla

This is your sign to check out the Invisble Worlds exhibit at the AMNH And a reminder that everything is connected. Everything everywhere all at once #amnh #musuems #nyc #exhibits

RISE NY felt like a love letter to the city. Located in Times Square RiseNY is an interactive museum showcasing the rise and impact of this city from politics, technology, arts, music, pop culture etc. There’s something for everybody here and it’s perfect for all ages. You start your journey in a replica of City Hall and watch a beautiful documentary narrated by Jeff Goldbum. Then make your way through interactive exhibits. The grand finale is a fly over through the city on a 4D ride. It took me back to my childhood when the city was filled with interactive places like the Warner Brothers store, FAO on 5th, Jekyll and Hyde, Mars 2112, the Toys R Us with the giant ferris wheel etc. We needed a place like this. Have you been to @RiseNY yet? #nyc #museums #riseny #thingstodonyc #4d

Linking it below because it’s seriously helped me so much. As someone who has had to have regular iron infusions because the numbers dip so low I found this gentle iron to be a game changer! I suddenly had energy to run around bike and do all the things I had zero energy to do before. Let me know if you try it and hope it helps! #anemia #lowiron #hemoglobin #enegy #gentleiron
