@tadethompson @nerinedorman@LitReactor @johnfdtaff @AuthorZKnight @AureliaLeoCo @AfroSF@chineloonwualu@africansfs And my apologies again for suggesting all Africans are Black. Specific language is important here and I’m missing the mark left and right. This particular anthology is composed of Black authors, which is where the confluence comes from.
@tadethompson @LitReactor @johnfdtaff @AuthorZKnight @AureliaLeoCo @AfroSF@nerinedorman@chineloonwualu@africansfs My aim is to learn and be a better ally, which is why I felt it was important for me to read Dominion. I am sorry that words I’ve written have betrayed that ultimate goal and inadvertently erased important works by Black authors. I promise to do better going forward. 3/3
@tadethompson @LitReactor @johnfdtaff @AuthorZKnight @AureliaLeoCo @AfroSF@nerinedorman@chineloonwualu@africansfs I, like so many Midwest America white dudes, am woefully blind to the literature of people of color. I say this not as an excuse but as an admittance of guilt, an acknowledgement of a problem, but one that can be solved, a bad course I can correct. 2/3
Pandemic makes it easy to forget what day it is, and thus not be prepared for the Oklahoma City Saturday Disco Whistle Of Doom AKA the weekly tornado siren test.
Do writers actually have a responsibility to address what’s happening in the world? And if so, to what extent? Some of us are still figuring it out. https://t.co/lpTg2SNWCx @ChrisShultz_ @writingcommunity
Incredible. We've reached our funding goal. I'm astonished, quite honestly.
So this means we'll be opening to submissions in the next day or two. And that we will work toward stretch goals to fund the other four issues coming out in 2021!
"Alarm Will Sound" BY @ChrisShultz_ is like creepypasta filtered through a classic radio drama, but for the podcast era. It's such a fun read *and* listen! @Pseudopod_org https://t.co/KjbQLqnf4a
Looking for cosmic horror with a middle finger raised directly at the bigoted poster child for the subgenre? #lovecraftcountry is great, but let’s talk about Victor LaValle‘s The Ballad Of Black Tom first https://t.co/w4661ka2Gt @LitReactor
It’s time for the bastion of unchecked racism that is Native American sports mascots to end. It’s 20-goddamn-20. How is this still a thing? #TheTimeIsNow
