Unshrinking: Freedom as My First Language
Unshrinking is the foundational text of Self Sovereign Studies—a call to remember who you are before the world told you what to be. It blends memoir, philosophy, and spiritual truth to explore freedom as a lived practice, not a performance. This book speaks to those ready to reclaim ownership of their mind, body, and purpose. It’s not about becoming bigger than others—it’s about no longer making yourself small. This books sets out to prove 3 foundational truths:
1. Freedom as A First Language - the inherited, unspoken language of the soul — the instinctive knowing we’re born with before the world teaches us fear, compliance, and smallness. It’s the original tongue of self-trust, dignity, and belonging. Every system of control tries to make us forget it, so the work of Unshrinking is the lifelong fight to keep speaking it — in body, thought, and choice — even when the world demands silence.
2. Shrinking as Survival - Contemporary literature often frames “playing small” as weakness or self-betrayal. I claim it instead as a subversive strategy — a ritual of protection in a world that reads Black fullness as threat. Shrinking is not the absence of power; it’s the quiet preservation of it until it’s safe to expand again.
3. Liberation as Embodiment- A remembrance of one’s true soul that requires ongoing behavioral upkeep. Liberation isn’t a moment or a milestone; it’s a continual process and state of being—maintained through how we move, choose, and return to ourselves daily

Self Sovereign Studies
Self Sovereign Studies is both a philosophy and a movement—a framework for radical self-ownership. It challenges inherited systems of control and replaces them with personal accountability, inner authority, and divine trust. These studies are for those dismantling conformity in pursuit of truth, courage, and freedom. Here, sovereignty isn’t a buzzword—it’s a way of being.
