@NerdyPam 8th gen. Southerner here but only have a basic sense of the current danger because I haven’t lived there since Clinton was president. This map starkly demonstrates the political geography of hate https://t.co/Tk55xaopmG

OH MY GOD this is awesome. Players’ unions are some of the strongest in the country. This is so powerful. I can’t even make a joke about it; I’m just lightly tearing up.

Just finished the wonderful debut novel by @ignatius_sancho about the life of first black man to vote in England. It’s a compelling example of how fiction can be used to fill in the gaps of a marginalized historical figure & dream that character into a fully realized life. 🎉

@sinclair_writer They also say we should eat broccoli every day. Weekly word count goals work well for me to move a project forward-this incorporates flexibility with focus 📚
