Just Like Fingerprints

July 5, 2016 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway 2 Comments

Just Like Fingerprints

Marriages are like fingerprints; each one is different and each one is beautiful.


 

Today’s featured couple is Lewis and Traci Lowe.

(Side note: Traci was once featured as our “Swirling Single of the Week.” She & Lewis met and married within the next 18 months. IJS!)

We love to feature couples (and singles!) in our Inspiration Daily posts. If you’d like to be featured, please email a nice, high-resolution photo to InspirationDaily@TheSwirlWorld.com. Selfies are ok – just make sure they’re not blurry!

Loving Day Is Today!

June 12, 2016 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway 1 Comment

Happy Loving Day 2016

Today Is Loving Day!

Loving Day 2016I never tire of reading about the wonderfully compelling love story of Mildred Jeter and Richard Loving.

In June 1958 they decided to buck the tide of ignorance and racism and pursue their American dream: to spend their lives living and loving each other in holy (and legal) matrimony.

The “Crime” Of Interracial Marriage

They had to go to Washington, DC for the ceremony. Even so, they were arrested in their own bedroom in the middle of the night by sheriff’s deputies for the “crime” of interracial marriage.

Richard and Mildred were prosecuted by the state. They were sentenced to a year in prison for their “crime,” but allowed to leave Virginia.

For 5 years they lived in exile, separated from their families and banished from the home state they loved.

Mildred and Richard finally grew tired of the fact that they couldn’t live as a married couple in any state they wanted to live.

Fighting Back

They decided to fight back.  In June of 1967, nine years to the month they were married, a decision was rendered in a landmark Supreme Court case.

They had won. At long last, Richard and Mildred had the right to live and live in marital bliss anywhere in the United States.

Their decision to fight back changed the legal landscape for interracially married couples.

Sadly, the Supreme Court decision didn’t end racism, hatred, ignorance or intolerance. These days, turning on the evening news is almost a sure-fire way to remain painfully aware of the fact that racism – whether inherent, overt or covert, real or imagined, never seems to be far from the surface.

I’m grateful for the advances that have been made, yet I’m mindful of the fact that 1967 was merely 49 years ago.

Nevertheless, interracial couples (we’re especially partial to those featuring Black women!) flourish and thrive because the actions of this brave couple paved the way.

A Bittersweet Ending

The Loving’s story had a bittersweet ending. In 1975, 17 years after their marriage, Mildred Loving lost her husband Richard in a tragic car accident. Mildred died in 2008 but she never remarried.

In a statement issued on the 4oth anniversary of the historic Supreme Court decision (June 12, 2007 – the year before she died) Mildred declared:

“ . . . not a day goes by that I don’t think of Richard and our love, our right to marry, and how much it meant to me to have that freedom to marry the person precious to me, even if others thought he was the ‘wrong kind of person’ for me to marry.”

So Grateful!

I thank God for Richard and Mildred Loving, and for them having a love for one another that transcended the climate and laws of their day.

Richard and Mildred, today we celebrate you – and we celebrate love.

Happy Loving Day!


Today’s featured couple is Karla and Don, both retired Navy veterans.

They have been married for 22 years.

Karla and Don were first featured on the blog in 2014. To read that post, click here.

Karla and Don also were featured on a series of podcast episodes:

Podcast Episode 032 – Life, Love and Marriage – In the Navy!

Podcast Episode 033 – How To Manage a Long Distance Marriage

Podcast Episode 034 – The 3 Key Ingredients Necessary for Attracting a Quality Mate

Loving Day Celebration – And A Podcast First!

May 30, 2016 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

Loving Day 2016

Loving Day is for Swirlers!

If you’re a Swirler – someone who dates/marries interracially – then you’ve probably heard of Loving Day.Richard and Mildred Loving.

Loving Day was created in honor of Mildred Jeter and Richard Loving. In June of 1958, Richard and Mildred decided to buck the tide of ignorance and racism and pursue their American dream.

They simply wanted to spend their lives living and loving each other in holy (and legal) matrimony. They went to Washington, DC for the ceremony but were arrested in their own bedroom in the middle of the night by sheriff’s deputies for the “crime” of interracial marriage.

Right.

The “crime” of interracial marriage.

They fought back and in June of 1967, nine years to the month that they were married, in a landmark Supreme Court case they eventually won the right to live and love in marital bliss anywhere in the United States.

That’s right.

ANYWHERE.

Another Landmark “First”

In Podcast Episode 105, The Swirl World Podcast enjoys another first: A video to accompany the audio!

Former podcast guest and fellow Swirler Williesha Morris shares a slide show commemorating her crowd funding campaign for Loving Day 2016 in Birmingham, Alabama.

We’re honored to partner with Williesha in this worthy campaign and “Loving” cause.

Check out Williesha’s slideshow, and then head on over to her site to contribute to her campaign.

https://theswirlworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Williesha_Loving-Day-Swirl-World-Recording.mp4

Because of Richard and Mildred Loving, we have couples like Williesha and Jason Morris.

Loving Day 2016

We LOVE it! (pun intended)

Get Your Swirl On During The Holidays With These 3 Tips!

December 10, 2015 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

shareasimageIRCoupleDinner

All right, Ladies and Gentlemen, the holidays are in full swing!

So, you wanna get your Swirl on during the holidays?

Then check out the 3 easy tips I recently shared for those who want to get their swirl on during the holidays – and beyond.

The audio from this podcast was taken from a Periscope I did a couple of days before Thanksgiving.

(So, are you following me on Periscope yet? If not, what are you waiting for?)
shareasimagePeriscope

 

I refer to Thanksgiving in the audio, but these tips are good for Christmas, the upcoming presidential election season – basically, all year round.

I encourage you to implement 1, 2 or 3 of the tips. You’ll be getting your Swirl on in no time!

If you can’t see the podcast player, click here or here.

If you can’t see the Sound Cloud player, click here. You can also head over and listen to the show on iTunes, Stitcher Radio, Spreaker or PlayerFM.

Shout Out!

The Shout Out! for Podcast Episode 94 goes to the dynamic, ubiquitous powerhouse Michelle Y. Talbert of the Her Power Hustle website and podcast. Michelle also recently launched a new start-up: Her Power List!

According to the HPL website, “Her Power List is the ONLY women-led business directory that enables you to locate the goods and services that you seek.

With a simple click of your mouse, you can connect with the owner on your favorite social media platforms–from LinkedIn to Periscope, watch her share helpful information with you in a video, peruse a gallery of pictures, download resources (like a free chapter of her most recent book) and shoot her an email to ask a question.

For those HPL Listers who provide in-person service, you can map their location with our Google map function – straight from the HPL Listing!”

Michelle made The Swirl World a featured business during the first week of her launch, and we couldn’t be more honored.

We wish Michelle all the best in this new business venture – and we’re proud to call her friend.

 

Join in the Fray: Are you going to get your Swirl on during the holidays? If you use any of the tips, send me an email at aswirlgirl@theswirlworld.com. I’d love to feature you on the blog!

#344| She’s Going Places

December 10, 2015 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

shareasimageKaywandaLambGoingPlaces

It’s Travel Thursday, which means we love to see people going places.

But you know what?

“Going places” doesn’t necessarily refer to traveling.

Sometimes, “going places” means doing new things, branching out and leaving your comfort zone.

“Going places” can also refer to launching new websites and products (something The Swirl World plans to do in 2016).

“Going places” can also refer to the upward trajectory the life of today’s featured model, Kaywanda Lamb, is taking.

Kaywanda is launching her first book, entitled Do It Anyway: The Single Moms Guide to Living Life and Achieving Her Goals.

She’s living her dream and loving it.

In other words, she’s going places!

Join in the Fray: In what areas of your life are you “going places?”

 

Kaywanda_circlephoto-150x150Kaywanda Lamb is an author, blogger, speaker, and Single Mom Coach. She teaches single moms to “rock the life they got” using her motto #DoItAnyway coupled with her 4 Part system.

Her sons are her pride and joy.  Follow her @Kaydyma on Twitter and at KaywandaLamb.com for more inspiration and a free discovery session.

Note: The Swirl World receives no affiliate income from this post. We love Kaywanda and simply want to support her!
