What an excellent way to spend a Monday evening talking about beautiful Indigenous and Black solidarity, representation and storytelling. Thank you all for letting me ramble on about myself and Eve Tuck's wonderful project Free Money!

Aladdin. They got the middle eastern content right (so I hear) but an American black man calling someone "Master"? Wtf? And the sexually agressive fat black woman made her way in there too! I waited 20 yrs to be able to watch this guilt free. Guess I'll have to wait some more :(

I don't know how it's possible to make such beautiful music. Thank you Romeo Santos for spending 32 hours with me this year on Spotify. You are my #1. #spotifywrapped

If you think POC and Indigenous folks in PhD programs aren’t asking themselves every other day 1. WHY AM I DOING THIS 2. Am I contributing to the system that oppressed us in the first place? 3. Are my ideas/is my presence even worthwhile? Then you haven’t talked to enough of us

The leadership in Ontario now reminds me of this time I was on a city bus in Rome with a driver who didn't know the route. So the passengers had to shout to him where to turn and when to stop. #thanksDoug #failedontario #VoteFordOut2022

My work supports Black creators who to seek engender a sophisticated, positive connection to Blackness for children using a visual discussion crafted by me. My goal is to have my name synonymous with Black joy and Black freedom and inspire the same sentiments in other creators.

My work centers on Black People. I've created in the area of one thousand published images of robust, healthy, extraordinary Blackness. My art aggressively seeks to counter the oversupply of negative Black imagery. #blackillustrator #blackkidlit #DigitalArtist #drawingwhileblack

Children respond to content that satisfies their need for diversion. The images I make provide a glimpse of healthy Black freedom & fun. I hope what I draw can shield them from anti Black sentiments & keep them grounded in the dialogue of diversity. #blackkidlit #blackillustrator

Outside of my work as an artist, I have studied linguistics which has influenced me to see my current practice through the lens of language pedagogy. For me, self-love and pro Blackness are dialects that can be taught through positive, Black affirming imagery. #blackgirlmagic

#WillAndChris In his Memoir Will Smith talks a lot about past trauma and the guilt he felt about not being able to protect his mother when he was a boy. I'll just leave that there.

Two years and counting, we're still here. N95 masks for 12-16hr shifts in addition to isolation gowns, gloves, hats, faceshields and staffing shortages. Yet, you can't wear a simple mask to save a life :(
