Happy Fathers’s Day to all the dadas! 😍😎 ![Today we celebrate Juneteenth and we take our time to dive deeper into the truth of America’s history.
We celebrate progress and acknowledge that there is still much work to be done so that BIPOC can be truly free in America.
Before we can effectively do the outside work, we must do the inside work. We must understand the history of how we got here, and how we consciously or unconsciously participate in the upholding of the deeply broken and oppressive system of white supremacy. This upholding comes at the expense of the lives, dignity, and wellbeing of our BIPOC sisters and brothers.
Here are some of the resources that have been very impactful for us in our learning:
Reconstruction: America after the Civil War A four part series on PBS. Though the North won the Civil War, post Civil War America saw a violent backlash against Blacks and a refortification of the white supremacist paradigm that lives on today. That’s putting it mildly, this is a must watch.
13th - Picking up where Reconstruction leaves off, to the modern day enslavement of Black people via mass incarceration. Painfully eye opening.
Me and White Supremacy by Layla F. Saad - White supremacy is the ocean we live in, dismantling it has to include white people, via learning and unlearning the very systems that are constructed to keep us asleep and complicit in an effort to uphold white privilege and white supremacist norms. White supremacy does not belong to extremists in this country, instead it is perpetuated by all
white people, consciously or unconsciously. We are taking our time with this book to digest it completely.
We commit to being a part of the healing by understanding our role in the trauma and how we can be true, honest, allies to BIPOC. We take today, Juneteenth, as an opportunity to further our commitment to this Revolution.]()

#amplifymelanatedvoices ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 From our stories this week:
We stand with our Black Sisters and Brothers until the end.
Behind our business, we are two humans in a bi-racial relationship. We have experienced micro-aggressions, little traumas and big traumas due to race bias.
And yet, still we have a lot to learn about our own role and participation in the greater system + learning to raise our children to have greater knowledge and awareness around inclusion, kindness, and advocacy.
The change begins in me, the change begins in you.
White people; and yes that includes me:
If we have not yet taken the time to truly seek out + listen + actively learn from people of color and their personal and communal experiences
PS: Use the google, and stay out of Black people’s DMs
If we have not yet taken the time to truly challenge what we think we know about your personal participation in racism
Please note: IT IS TIME TO BEGIN.
Of course if you have the means, donate money to aid in the fight for justice and the education of a new generation.
There are no band aids for these hurts. There are no quick fixes. These injustices aren’t going away any time soon - they line the very foundation of this country. These wounds run deep, and our black sisters and brothers are rightfully enraged and exhausted. Underneath it all there is so much trauma and grief. Grief that people of color in the year 2020 in the United States of America are STILL dehumanized overtly and covertly every damn day of their lives.
Black, African American, People of Color, WE STAND WITH YOU. WE ARE LISTENING + LEARNING. WE HEAR YOU, WE LOVE YOU.
White friends: If we believe in LOVE, if we truly believe that love is the answer then we cannot, we must not look away. The only way out is through.
How do we get through?
We make an ONGOING commitment to DO THE WORK to see where our personal participation in systemic racism assists in keeping this system in place. It takes time, it is uncomfortable, it is the only way through.
If we are not part of the disruption, then we are part of the problem.]()

Laser Lab was born out of these principles, and we can honestly say that, even though we officially opened our doors last summer, we began this journey 7 years ago. It was 7 years ago that we designed and laser engraved our wedding invitation suite and fell in love with the process of laser engraving. As importantly, we are smitten with helping others realize their creative vision through the laser cutting and engraving process. Cheers to love today, and everyday! 📷 credit: @jenna_t_walker]()
