I've been talking about this story for months and now it's here! When we've already lost a loved one, what else do we lose when we can't come together to say goodbye? I write about the toll of online mourning and funerals as we collectively process grief. https://t.co/filAl4oDzv

One strength of the Affordable Housing Overlay is the certainty it provides, says @MagdaMaaoui. "If a developer follows zoning laws, the project will likely gain approval, which is extremely valuable for affordable housing developers." @smartcitiesdive

We run into a lot of barriers supporting incarcerated journalists, but this is a first.

@GuardianUS -- a publication that extensively covers the U.S. prison system -- has a new editorial policy banning its editors from commissioning stories from incarcerated reporters.

"When I hear the word 'company town,' I'm always a little bit suspicious because historically, they were very controlled towns and very top-down institutions."

I talked with city planning experts about Elon Musk's plans for a company town in Texas. https://t.co/cIqd5He6E4

@svershbow I lived in Atlanta most of my life and I'm about to visit for the first time in awhile. I'm definitely hitting up Oakland Cemetery, Ria's Bluebird, and Buford Highway Farmers Market.

Are you in NYC? Don't miss this powerful exhibition of feminist paintings by my friend Corey, an incarcerated writer and artist. The exhibition is March 4-18 in Brooklyn.

@trueroscoe @hey_alma Yeah, there are Chanukah and Passover episodes.

@juliadahl This might go in the pitching section, but how to manage rejection.

[Adina Solomon @adinars]

@murielvega I live in Mexico City and I still wish I could go for dates on Buford Highway.

@MarindaOnline $36k in 2013. (Inflation-adjusted, that's $47k today.) I remember being pleasantly surprised at the salary.

I've been volunteering with incarcerated writers for 2+ years and I love it. I also get to work with a super supportive group of people. If you're interested in volunteering, check out the info below. Let me know if you have any questions about my experience.

[Empowerment Avenue @EmpowermentAve]

We are building Empowerment Ave's volunteer base! Do you have writing/editing experience and would like to support an incarcerated writer getting work outside prison walls? We can connect and support you in these transformational relationships.

@ErnestoVTh I'm a journalist writing an article about transportation in CDMX. I was wondering if I could talk with you for it. Happy to tell you the specific topic, more details, etc. Could you reach out here or email [email protected]? Thanks!

We partnered with @fultonartfair and the Brooklyn Quakers to support Corey Devon Arthur's art exhibit, "She Told Me To Save the Flower." His art and words will show his journey becoming a feminist.

We're raising $ to support the work. Donate if you can!
