1a. Immediately spilled a whole mug of tea on my nightstand bc life is a wild riiiiide. 🙃
👀 I wrote What Are You? abt shadow work...abt all kinds of crazy stuff ppl have said to me, abt growing up black in super-white spaces bc...whew it’s a LOT. I didn’t want to write it. I didn’t want to have to write it...but here we are...in America! 🇺🇸 I used to dream abt a mention in a book like this. I used to dream abt a lot of things. And I still do. And I will.✌🏾
