http://philosophactivist.blogspot.com/2014/09/puerto-rico-my-home.html

Friday, September 12, 2014. Puerto Rico: My Home. It's been 4 weeks and here I sit reflecting on the last few years of my life that have brought me to heal on the island of Puerto Rico. For the last few days I've been frequenting the beach- my confidant, my teacher, my altar. There is so much knowledge hidden deep in the warm, fierce waves of the Atlantic off the northeast coast of Puerto Rico where I now reside. In the first 2 weeks of being here, during my artist residency at Patio Taller. I am already...

http://philosophactivist.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html

Tuesday, September 17, 2013. Joys of Job Hunting while Trans- Part 2. This weekend I immediately knew exactly why I didn't get hired. On the quiz they gave us. They also dug my creativity in the 2. And then, she called in her white, male boss. I told them what it stood for, Trans Bodies, Trans Selves. She walks me out of the back room and tries to be nice and ask what I'm going to do for the rest of the day and kind of rushes me off saying she'd be in touch by Monday. She'd mentioned earlier that her...

Thursday, June 26, 2014. Afro-Genderqueer at the Austin African American Book Festival Showcase. Here's the audio and transcript for Saturday's Austin African American Book Festival Showcase. I'm excited and, at least, less nervous than I was about tabling and talking about my books there. This is bigger than me, I have to remind myself. And there will be at least one other QTPOC writer and some 'allies' present. I won't be alone. Well, hello hello. So, a little bit about the Afro-Genderqueer moniker.
