New York fam,
Saturday I'll be at the iconic Schomburg Center in conversation with C Riley Snorton, a scholar who I admire so much.
Join us at 12:30pm for a Prideteenth conversation & Q&A. Can't wait to see you all and celebrate the paperback release of Bloom!

I hope it leaves more space for the next Black trans person to be their truest, most deserving self. Because liberation isn’t a far-off destination we’ll reach, or something handed to us for a job well done. It’s something we must demand and snatch for ourselves, every day of our lives.
TOMORROW!
It’s interesting how proximity to cis folks with platforms and parasocial relationships operate as a shield from accountability. Too often visibility gets mistaken for credibility. Many would be wise to remember that cis folks will never speak to trans community dynamics more truthfully than us.
