This is the first essay I posted, it's about my big sister Jackie who we lost in 2007. I tell the story of how she grew up and how she influenced my fashion and musical preferences. I also write about how Black girls are excluded from the state. https://t.co/bYqVPOF56j

Short story research: I am curious of the process of a lien on a house for owing back taxes. I am trying to find out if developers target homes with liens and harass them to sell, or if the city or state forces the home in foreclosure. Does anyone have stories like this?
