Tamika is an author, artist, and teacher of lament whose work speaks to the lonely, heartbroken, and displaced.

A Black American woman living in Austria. She writes for sojourners and those living as strangers in foreign lands, those navigating cultures, identities, and heartbreaks that don’t always make space for them.

She is the co-author of two books of Liturgies and Laments for the Sojourner, Volumes 1 & 2.

In a world that often rushes past grief, silences sorrow, and prizes resilience over honesty, she teaches the practice of lament as a pathway to worship, a spiritual practice inviting us to bring our pain to God and courageously draw closer to the Creator.

Scott  Harrison
“Imagine you’re standing on an island, looking at water on all sides. You think that this little piece of real estate, which represents your capacity for love, is all there is. Then you have your first child, and a bubbling happens off in the distance and a giant new island appears. You realize that the new island was part of your heart all along, just submerged. And then you think you could never love another child like this one, but you look off to the left, and a brand-new island appears: your second child. And your heart expands even more. You’re not borrowing from or shutting down other parts to feel more love. It’s an additive process, like reclaiming land from the sea.”
Scott Harrison, Thirst
