How old am I?

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 congratulations!!! Well deserved.

I just finished my 4th year on the tenure-track. I just got my Ph.D. in august of 2020. And, within them 4 years I loss both my parents, my paternal grandmother, my mentor/friend, and got divorced. So whatever anti-Black, anti-Queer, anti-poor capitalist timeline you got me on…

Please keep it to your goddamn self. Writing is sacred. Writing about embodied archives of ancestral memory in a foreign city like Nueva Yol’ yet familial transgenerationaly takes a minute. Grief writing helps get all of my ideas without any genre in mind just raw flows.
