    I have a poem in The Georgia Review from my Racial Calculus series, written in partnership with UofA against incarceration. This poem attempts to visualize the racial logics of Black and Indigenous dispossession, in tribute to WEB DuBois' data portraits.

  3. Is it way more expensive to ship to Mexico now? I just sent a box to Chetumal and before it was around $90, today it was $240 what the hell

    Honored to have had this poem selected by Erica Doyle for Poem-a-Day. A friend told me I was leaning too much on flare & style in my poems and hiding behind it. So I spent the year trying to find meaning. This poem is about that. Thank you for reading!!!

    I overdrafted my account to get rent this month & had 3 overdraft fees added onto my already negative balance. Even with the small check I have coming on the 15 I won't be able to get out of the negative numbers & need some help. My Venmo is janeth-lopezsanchez if anyone can help

    These new poems by in are blowing my mind! “On the auction block, the state empties the woman of personhood through the language of law, and in doing so, invents property.”

    Recently a friend was like wait have you EVER gone on a date from an app? No. I’ve been in long term relationships since hs so now I’m like a 14 yo from 1996 trying to understand spinelessness and ghosting and how miserable you have to be to make an alt to gossip and spy on exes

    Can anyone recommend good fantasy/speculative fiction/video game literary criticism (race readings a plus)? I've got Ursula K. LeGuin, The Dark Fantastic by Dr. Ebony Elizabeth Thomas, Lauren Berlant, and various others but citations aren't leading where I need to go. Thank you!

    Absolutely devastating loss. Thank you for your voice and vision, for teaching us to speak back to power and never stutter. Rest in power, Dr. Haunani Kay Trask.

    I just really need y’all to understand that even taking books to sell them is STILL fulfilling the purpose of the library, and if the objection is moral, read Matthew to understand why capital shouldn’t exist wrt housing, food, or shared resources like stories and information
