Very proud to share my first story in the Saturday Evening Post about 19th-century orgs formed to fight an unjust U.S. government. Have you heard of vigilance committees? I hadn’t until I learned of them in a Breckenridge history museum saturdayeveningpost.com/2026…

Vigilance Committees and the Pathway to Freedom | The Saturday Evening Post

After passage of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, abolitionists organized vigilance committees to protect free Black people from capture.

I have for the last 13 years. Not only does it save countless hours, it’s also liberating from everything from self-critique to patriarchy.

For decades, GILEE has flown Atlanta cops to occupied Palestine to drill with the IOF. Now, Cop City, a rehearsal ground for urban warfare, has been erected on stolen Muscogee land. These parallels are not metaphors. They are supply chains. scalawagmagazine.org/2025/11…

The Parables Are an Autopsy – Scalawag

In witnessing the wreckage of the South, I finally understand Octavia Butler’s Parables not as prophecy, but as an autopsy.

I continue to be impressed with Gen Z, particularly students at schools in the AUC. For Sierra Magazine, I wrote about a BHM hike where students reclaimed Black joy in the outdoors in a space designed for exclusion. sierraclub.org/sierra/reclai…

We should have a larger convo about how companies like American Eagle use beautiful people to add glamor to unglamorous products. In 2023, a young Bangladeshi woman committed suicide at a factory that made American Eagle clothes bc of abuse. This is the cost of cheap clothes.
