I never thought I'd be a Surfer
Documentarian, Producer Nicole Torre who's also an excellent videographer came to get footage of me surfing but since there wasn't any waves, she put me on the spot and asked questions instead..

Do Mermaids exist? After having an interesting encounter in the Ocean, I often wonder about the possibility that they have existed... What do you believe? #mermaid #mermaids
The Origins of California's name from Queen Califia
Просмотров 35410 месяцев назад
To this day, I meet People who didn't know California got its name from a Black Queen named Califia who ruled over this land.. Her story was a mythical character in the famed Novella of the 1500's called Adventures of Esplandian. To others like Ferdinand Columbus, Afro Spanish Explorer Pedro Alonso Nino, Hernan Cortes, Magellan, Diaz and many Conquistadors, the land that showered her treasures ...
She Surf for the Ancestors, She surf for Freedom

Surf Hair don't care takes on a whole different meaning when I think about my Ancestors who had to fear being near the water, didn't have access to the pool or beaches to learn how to swim and had to stay away from it for physical well-being as well as to keep their hair maintained for job opportunities. This is a brief history of a Black Woman's journey of hair through surfing. Hope you enjoy....

A Great Day in the Stoke for Black Surfers
Was that Topanga Lou, interviewing you?
Haven't heard about Topanga Lou, nope it was Nicole Torre.
So great!!!
Wow! I feel so empowered after watching this. Thank you!!!
You're so welcome!
Are you leaving hair out in the back as well as the front?
Only for the inner lock braiding method, not for the tree braid method... I also have a very detailed instructional video for purchase in the link about them both..
So fine!!❤
Thank you Queen sharing this information!
You're welcome ❤
Great stories enjoyed every minute of it! Mike was like a Kelly Stater back in the day better than every one!
Calafia was not a Congoid she is Kali the Hindu goddess
❤❤❤❤
Damnnn!!! Keep inspiring!!!! This is much more valuable and real than what the fitness gurus want us to think, don’t change!! You go girl!!!🎉❤
Thank you, I really your comment, helps me to keep posting..
You should check out the kneesovertoesguy here on RUclips. He’s got some incredible advice and easy exercise movements you can do to help your ankle heal asap. I honestly can’t recommend it enough, some of those exercises changed my life with how much better I feel now.
Thank you for this. I am from California and have always heard about Queen Califia. Keep up the great 🙌🏾
I'm so happy to hear this and bring more education about her .
People need to "decide" if a popular fictional character ruled California? Lol I'll ask Santa in a few weeks.
Every single City and State in California is named after someone except the actual State 🤔🤔🤔... You can admit this was an interesting vlog thou..
@@thatsurfchic_mimi Well named after a fictional island is still a good story. Can admit the merch is nice too.
@@LeonardMcFacepunch Thank you . But so fictional that Columbus, Megallan, Cortes and many, many more went to find her, hmmm... You should check out my Blog Creativelycultured.com I have a lot of documented, detailed accounts of Baja California during that time which are kept in, State records and libraries.
I really like the amount of effort you put into your graphics and your presentation. You would be the perfect person to do a video about Cicero the young Negro slave. Let me know if you'd like to learn more about him. His books were number 1 theater plays and best sellers in Europe during his era but Amerika scrubbed him from history. That's because White Amerikans were homeless while he was a well paid Löhnsklaven "Wage worker" just as all Negro Sklaven "Workers". Let me know and I'll make you a RUclips sensation with true Black history rather than a fiction novel written for women. Warm regards
There is no documented history of a Queen Califia outside of the United States therefore this story is false. Califia literally means Pole and was the original name of Poland Germany and yes they were Black at that timeline. When Europe settled Amerika they placed names like New Amsterdam, New England, New Spain and there was Califia in English is California "Poland Germany".🧐 If you knew about Califia Germany you'd know to stay far away from California especially if you are Black "Mestiz".👍
Well should have did much more research then I did because her history started in Spain and moved up to Europe.. Also there are many accounts that Captain and Sea Crews documented later published as Books that talked about it... These books are saved in the Catholic Libraries and other places you can check out on my Blog at Creatively Cultured 🤙🏽...
@@thatsurfchic_mimi Sorry babe but I'm a student of the Royal Library of Holländisch-Deutsch and the story of Köningin Calafia was written by a Spanish guy named Vincent Ibáñez Blasco. It's totally fictional story for women readers. The State of California was named long before this guy was a seed in his Daddy's nut sacks. He wrote this story in the mid 1800s. Yet seeing that you are a Black person I can tell you a State being named California is not where you want to be. Califia or Calafia or California literally means Pole and is a reference to Poland Germany. Poland Germany was a place used for mixing races in a poor attempt to create the perfect Negro. Each time they were unsatisfied with the results and would kill all the people of Poland and start all over again. Eventually they settled the elites in California areas like Norwalk, Long Beach, San Pedro, Lynwood, and surrounding Compton areas.👍 But as far as Queen Califia "Queen Poland of Hebrew Spain" no she did not exist.🧐
@@thatsurfchic_mimi You can only read about Califia Germania "California Germany" in the Royal Library. At the time the smartest Negroes in the world were the Saxons hence the reason these Freimaureri were called the Illuminati. They would use Califia as a place to mix the smartest Negroes with what they considered the dumbest Negroes "Crimeans". The people in charge of mixing them were Blacks called Kolorieten who specialized in painting portraits which involved mixing colors. Their king would have them mix people to get the colour skin he liked. But they also had to be strong and intelligent 🤓. Although many were strong they simply could not pass the intelligent test.
Lol, to sound so educated but be so wrong is absolutely hilarious.. Firstly, her story started in the 1500's... That may be another Seamen who wrote about her.. I find this very hilarious thou.
Emotional intelligence is a high art that I am certain you missed here... Typically one would watch the actual vlog before going into a frenzy.. Not sure your motivation but I am indifferent to your limited education.. You tried thou ✌🏽..
I love your videos. Thanks for allowing us to see your journey. Definitely inspires me to get in that water💕
You're welcome, very much appreciated, it's not always been an easy journey but very rewarding and I sincerely hope these vids bring more awareness as to what goes on out there sometimes, gotta be a lil rough around the edges to keep the sacred gems inside protected..
Yes ma'am generation x
Represent!!!
I thought I was the only one . People talking about new technique or what they created. These styles been out way back
oh they're out here lying huh lol.. Let us start making some videos
Literally comparing your videos and you look stronger when you do these…THANK YOU FOR INSPIRING ME…

Do you like surfing at less crowded spots or would you surf local?
Dope
Thank you, did you see a Great day in the Stoke? that's a more current one.
hi I'm so happy that i found your review, i'm a beginner using foam board ,I wanna get this board as my first long board, is it friendly to beginners?and how's the quality ?
You're welcome. I'd say it's beginner friendly if you stick to smaller waves.
Great video, I wish I could surf with some black brothers and sisters too!
Thank you... There are a lot of surf schools, I have a more recent video about them
Salamander surfinnn love to see it
Thank you Mimi for this great perspective on Surfing. I appreciate it and your positive impact this movie expressed. Remy Smith
You're welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed it...
Well this thing turned out to be a travesty. The Bruce’s get the property then immediately turn around and sell it back to the state. Can you imagine the capital gains tax on that property?? Once the lawyers and the “community leaders” take their cut, the Bruce’s will divide a pittance among themselves. This was just a placating stunt by Newsome. Total waste of time!
Did you get a chance to see my recent vlogs about them? I know it's been a long fight dor decades... Most of them are of age, They could reinvest the money, also they only received money for the land closest to the Beach...
Dang. I actually saw you up on a long board. I'll be truthful, I was doubting. 😁
Haha, why were you doubting?
Wow all this Melanin. It’s rich 😊
Yeaaaa... it was so much fun
It so good to meet you that day! Great video! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️❤️❤️
Gina!!!! It was a pleasure meeting you and enjoying the day with you as well as everyone else... This History is so important and I was so grateful to hear the deeper stories that have not been widely told about Bruce Beach..
Also, your story was so dynamic, did you find the pic of the home and if she was Humphreys chef?
It was also great to me you Gina and to locate your decedents home was historically wonderful. ~ Rashidi
Please do a tutorial for interlock braids, tree braids weave, and tree braids individuals.🙂🙏
Done!! I'll post about them soon.
True Los Angeles Living History ✊✊🏿✊🏽✊🏻👑
Yes, it really is.... will be talked about for decades... Ive heard a Movie will possibly be made about it too.
@@thatsurfchic_mimi Amazing! Thank you for documenting these stories! I have learned quite a bit about La Jolla and the original land owners in San Diego. It would be amazing to see a similar dedication. 🙏
@D STREET MEDIA You're welcome, yes it would be great at Blacks Beach, Huntington Beach and Alondra Park and so many others...
@@thatsurfchic_mimi 💯Hopefully sooner than later! ✊
@D STREET MEDIA Yes, it takes vlogs like this.. I started making them on my fcbk back in 2016, then on ig then here on RUclips and the one I did in 2018 went viral in 2020....so we the People have to show interest and talk about the changes we want to see... its crazy because I knew that one day this would happen for them... I told two of the cousins back in 2017 here that I got to talk to.. Also, this family was able to retain documents.. Many Black Communities were burned down to destroy everything they had so that is another challenge.
Came through from video Matt good stuff
Ohhh, I just remembered who that was... I need to go check it out.
Great channel !
Thank you, Glad you enjoy it!
Godess✨
Thank you.. Yes, I do believe.
✊🏾✨🌍 The Primordial Ocean. Nuut.
Yeaaaaa... Ase!!

Thank you! Jah Bless..
So necessary. Thanks for this.
You are so welcome! This was probably the first video of doing natural hair ever posted on RUclips back in the day but as you see, it's still relevant
Dedon. Miss him deeply

I’m lovin it 🤎🤎🤎🤎
Glad to hear it!!
Keep doing a great job!! This content needs promo sm!!
Thank you! Really appreciate that.

Gigi!!!!! Hello Luv, Happy 2023!!! How are you? Hopefully all is well. Miss you too Queen.. Thank you so much, yes I am. So good to hear from you..
This Shawn O'Wella Board Shaper, do you have any contact info on him? Would love to support a black shaper.
Hey Yes I do have Sean Owolo's info.. You can find him under his name on IG Sean Owolo his handle is Citizeno... He's super cool. Let him know you saw this video because he's particular about who he makes boards so this will have more meaning for him...
And it will remain history. Cause the family got it back from the city and sold it back to the city. Straight silly.
I know a lot of People are disappointed about it. They still got 20 Million so I guess they did what was best for them to move on.
I going to the beach to learn how to surf.
I wrote a blog at www.beachculturechic.com/beach-culture why it's not a good idea to learn on your own lol.. I offer some resources there as well. Check it out and tell me what you think.
