My new book The Holy Ghost Lives In Her Laugh is now available for pre-order via @KithBooks

A love letter to grief, to my mother, to survival—and to the versions of us still learning how to live.

Pre-orders matter more than you know:

Inconveniencing fans because a rapist pedophile war criminal who hasn’t been to an NBA game this century wants to be the center of attention

I don’t ask for much. I just want the crowd at the NBA Finals to chant “FUCK TRUMP.”

Congratulations to Kameirah Johnson on winning this year’s Google Doodle contest. Just a beautiful piece of art. I hope her artistic career goes very, very far. This is the kind of talent we need to see and support. 🙏🏾🙏🏾

I think when people say "decolonize your mind" they mean from white supremacy — and I think it actually includes deprogramming yourself from all the other stuff too (religion, patriarchy, homophobia, capitalism, etc) because those things are also white supremacy believe it or not

Notice how New York City is enjoying one of its most peaceful periods of time on record the last 6 months under a democratic socialist mayor that didn’t run on any kind of ‘tough on crime/expand police force’ rhetoric

There’s a correlation there but I don’t know what it is.

the death of a parent is one of the most sobering things you can experience and i felt this so deeply. i feel like i’m constantly looking for signs that my dad is listening or guiding my steps, and i take every single one i can get. he playing for something different.

Black queer people have spent generations turning rejection into culture, pain into art, and exclusion into movements. Imagine what we’d build if we weren’t fighting just to survive.

Those of us who teach reading & writing should not be teaching students how to 'game the system' by encouraging (or even allowing) AI use in our classes; we should be teaching them how to actually use their brains; we should be teaching knowledge production, not slop production.

i hope the next global trend will be empathy and critical thinking.
