This site features the work of Justin Laing and is a mix of book reviews, published articles, curricula for young people (coming), reflections on social and political issues, & a range of blog posts I wrote between 2012-2017 about living in Pittsburgh’s Hill District.
I am the son of Susan and Clarence Laing, husband of Ebony Ross and the father of Kufere, Etana and Adeyemi Laing. I am initiated as an Olorisha (possessor of Orisha) in the Lucumi Tradition by my godfather Baba Bill Lowman and a member of Ile Asho Fun Fun, a community of Lucumi practitioners led by Iya Huberta Jackson Lowman, the senior Olorisha, and Baba Lowman. I am also a Brother of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity and the Principal of Hillombo LLC, a consultant practice which you can check out here.
