AfroerotiK

Erotic provocateur, racially-influenced humanist, relentless champion for the oppressed, and facilitator for social change, Scottie Lowe is the brain child, creative genius and the blood, sweat, and tears behind AfroerotiK. Intended to be part academic, part educational, and part sensual, she, yes SHE gave birth to the website to provide people of African descent a place to escape the narrow-mined, stereotypical, limiting and oft-times degrading beliefs that abound about our sexuality. No, not all Black men are driven by lust by white flesh or to create babies and walk away. No, not all Black women are promiscuous welfare queens. And as hard as it may be to believe, no, not all gay Black men are feminine, down low, or HIV positive. Scottie is putting everything on the table to discuss, debate, and dismantle stereotypes in a healthy exchange of ideas. She hopes to provide a more holistic, informed, and enlightened discussion of Black sexuality and dreams of helping couples be more open, honest, and adventurous in their relationships.

Forgiving Our Abusers



We are spiritual beings having a human experience.  We, you and I, are made up of the exact same energy of the Creator; we are made up of the same stuff that animates the entire Universe.  We choose our life’s mission before we are born.  We come to this earth plane to experience joy, love, and abundance in excess.  If we don’t live abundantly, if we don’t experience the peace that passeth understanding, it is not because we chose to live in poverty and pain, it’s because we have forgotten that we are the God source, we are disconnected from the energy that is Divine Love.  When others inflict pain on us, when others choose to harm and abuse us, it’s not because we have chosen that experience for this lifetime, it is because they chose evil and darkness rather than Love and Light, it is because they feel pain and want to inflict pain on others in order to try to make themselves feel better.  They are made of the same energy that we are, the same God source, but they are more disconnected from source.  It does not mean that they are evil, it simply means that their vibrations are not in tune with Source.  When we leave our bodies, when we are reunited with Pure Consciousness, our slate is wiped clean and there is no sin, no pain, there is only love.  Once we re-member our Divinity, we vibrate at the consciousness of Love again and we are Whole.
