GIVEAWAY ALERT!!!

My book will be out in the world March 25,2025 and I’m beyond joyous for @beaconpress.bsky.social to be its home.

If you’re the kind of person who easily forgets what you’ve accomplished, you need a practice for reminding yourself. Count the years, the finished projects, the progress, the praise, count it all up and use it as evidence against the ever present criticism in your head that you’re not doing enough.

This is EXACTLY why police cannot be a part of the labor movement. They have their own union and it used AGAINST the public. It used to HARM the public. To STEAL from taxpayers to cover their own asses. They are an arm of the government. They cannot stand with the people

It was a dream.

It is an honor beyond words to join a conversation with two of the most insightful and unyielding poets of our time Danez Smith & Jericho Brown.

Join us for this unforgettable gathering of voices, brilliance, and celebration. See you all there!

Friday! It will be so great to be in conversation with @wjlofton1.bsky.social, Maya Marshall, Bettina Judd, and Opal Moore to celebrate the publication of my book, Ankle Deep in Pacific Water
