¡Bienvenidos! ようこそ！

Errol de Jesus

Welcome to Morenita Mommy! My name is Errol.

I love copywriting for businesses and sharing my experiences as a Black mother raising a multicultural family.

I work with brands to create authentic content that gets more leads and engagement.

I’m also fighting racism and monolingualism by raising my biracial baby trilingual and encouraging Black parents to do the same with their children!

𝐋𝐄𝐓'𝐒 𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐘 𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐔𝐀𝐆𝐄 𝐁𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐎! 𝘔𝘌𝘓𝘈𝘕𝘈𝘛𝘌𝘋 𝘌𝘋𝘐𝘛𝘐𝘖𝘕 Heyyy morenxs, can y'all get a bingo? I had a ton of fun writing these spaces but it brought some deep reflection too.

I understand and embrace that now. Don't forget to share this post in your stories so I can see your answers! Tag me in it so I can see if you got a bingo!

𝐇𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡 𝐁𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐓𝐨𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐨𝐰 Last year, I was scrambling to plan for celebrating Dia de los Muertos, El Paseo del Pendón, Navidad, Reyes Magos... My husband Javier is #Mexican. I'm #Black. Our son is #AfroMexican. When I start planning decorations and looking up recipes, even my own mother will ask, "Why do you care so much?" No, I'm not #Hispanic or #Latinx. But that doesn't mean I can't show love and respect. That doesn't mean I can't seek to understand. I want my son to know that both sides of his heritage are beautiful. Through raising a #multicultural and #multilingual family, I see my own Blackness from different perspectives. Celebrating Mexican holidays and speaking Spanish isn't performative. It's how I've grown closer to Javier. Chris is little now but he'll remember this as he gets older. I know sometimes my family will roll their eyes when I start talking about how raising a #biracial son is a responsibility that I take seriously. I get told to not worry about #race. But I don't just worry about race. I think about it. I talk about it. Race is not taboo. If we continue to see it that way, how can we foster or navigate conversations about race? When we know our history, we know ourselves. Race, #language, and #culture aren't commodities. They're our way of life. Do not limit your willingness to learn about another culture to just one month, a trending hashtag, or one video/movie/article. Embody that openness every day. #parenting #blackgirlswhobog #mommyblog #twincitiescollective #melaninblogger #mkbkids #mnblogger #mnblogger #blackgirlsblog #browngirlswhoblog

❤️𝐃𝐎𝐔𝐁𝐋𝐄 𝐓𝐀𝐏 𝐌𝐈 𝐍𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐎 𝐒𝐇𝐎𝗪 𝐒𝐎𝐌𝐄 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄 𝐏𝐎𝐑 𝐒𝐔 𝐀𝐁𝐔𝐄𝐋𝐀!❤️ Today is this extraordinary woman's birthday. She's my momma, my heart, and my inspiration. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have started learning #Japanese! I remember when she told me that we couldn't afford to go to Japan. But she took me to Houston's Japanese festival at Hermann Park every year. She even bought me loads of Japanese language books and dictionaries. She drove me to every Japanese speech contest at St. Thomas University or Rice University. She saved every certificate or trophy that I won. Imagine her surprise when I told her that I was learning #Spanish to be with my husband, who's from Mexico! Nevertheless, she was thrilled at the thought of having a #multilingual grand baby. She's been learning Spanish since my son Chris was born. Thank you momma, for all the encouragement, the curiosity, and the determination. You're a reminder of how important it is for parents to raise their children to be global citizens.
