One of these days the website will be updated. Maybe this weekend is one such days. 😉
When you google "terrorist," you get this: "a person who uses unlawful violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims." See how no qualifier comes between "a" and "person?" But they'd make u think there is.
How do you find time when you feel like you dont have enough? #AskingForAFriend
Mass murder at a Pittsburgh synagogue. A killer targeting African Americans in Kentucky. The bomb maker. The focus should not be only on Trump, but all who excuse, abet, or stand in silence while hate is stoked for political gain.
There are things you know and things you think you know. Between them is a vast ocean of arrogance and missed opportunities
A new poem by @BeverlyCottman atlanticrock.com/beverlycottman…
Building is not easy. Sometimes at the foundation it's hard to imagine how you are ever going to stand up the walls and roof. #perseverance #eyeontheprize

If you’re pitching, please please please include links to previously published stories. If you don’t have published clips, blog posts or even academic papers work. It’s just helpful for me, and other editors, to see your voice and your writing ability.
I also just want to hire more trans and nonbinary writers of color in general. You can pitch and write about anything, especially things that don’t deal directly with identity.
This Poem is titled Deep. Well, Well, Well. Water Poem!
PSA: All African Americans are Black Americans, but not all Black Americans are African Americans.
"There is the man who forgot my name, and there is the man who doesn't know I have one." Poet Whitney Greenaway (@mangoesnguavas) reads "The Purging" as part of her #BriefButSpectacular take on letting go.

Things not built for you or by you, you can still own. If by nothing else by your use of it. The whole Africa as is today was not designed (built) for us. But it shouldn't stop us from taking it and loving it enough to remake it x.com/madugian/statu…

I'm terrified of falling in love. It feels good, at first. I call, text, chat, pray for, write to, & want to hang out. A LOT! Then I start to worry. Am I doing too much? Am I clingy? Creepy? Are you suffocating? Should I stop or ease off? Say something! OK. I'll just be single.
