After the years of Black women’s legendary accomplishments in the sport, tennis still has a Black girl problem. As a former player and even bigger fan - I wonder what does it mean to be champion and who determines that. open.substack.com/pub/oksohearme…
No you’re not crazy. None of this is normal. In this piece I unpack our constant state of cognitive dissonance and how to move forward, even when we wish everything can go back to normal, because that is no longer an option. open.substack.com/pub/oksohearme…
Today Call Her Alex, a documentary about Alex Cooper host of Call Her Daddy, premieres at Tribeca Film Festival. In this piece, I tracked the guests over 153 of her episodes. Not everything is for us, but everything should be actively against us either. open.substack.com/pub/oksohearme…
I tracked every guest #CallHerDaddy had over the last 153 episodes. The results aren’t what I expected, they’re worse. open.substack.com/pub/oksohearme…
The Met highlighted a trend I noticed for years: the fear around saying Black open.substack.com/pub/oksohearme…
While you consider leaving, do you think about who you are leaving behind? For those who imagine Europe as a refuge from America’s political chaos, the reality is stark: authoritarianism and xenophobia are not uniquely American issues. Read more here: open.substack.com/pub/oksohearme…
My good friend @chandacdaniels has a new blog! Her most recent post about the debates got me giggling out here during these very irritating times. Subscribe, friends! Subscribe to ok so hear me out... oksohearmeout.substack.com/?r=ewetd&utm_c…
It's been four years since I published my first personal essay about my experience navigating the world as a Black woman. Today, I have new challenges. Read the new piece here published on my newly launched substack: oksohearmeout.substack.com/p/ok-so-hear-m…
"A hidden path to America’s dinner tables begins here, at an unlikely source – a former Southern slave plantation that is now the country’s largest maximum-security prison." Did you know these major companies' supply chains have been linked to prison labor? A 🧵:
📱 We need YOUR help to get the Fair Access to Victim Compensation Act across the finish line. All survivors deserve equal access to healing and @GovKathyHochul can make this a reality. Call 1-518-474-8390 and urge her to sign the FAVC Act now using the script below! #FairAccess
Healing after experiencing violence has no timeline. The Fair Access to Victim Compensation Act would make it a reality for all New Yorkers to receive life-changing funds to recover after harm. Survivors can’t wait - @GovKathyHochul sign the FAVC into law NOW #FairAccess
We're at Foley Square with our friends at the @katalcenter to call for the closure of #Rikers. Rikers has become a death sentence for too many people and with the @NYCMayor 's administration refusing to report deaths, the situation will only get worse. We must shut down Rikers…
Right now, New York State can break cycles of poverty and perpetual harm by passing #CleanSlateNY. Failure to do so will keep poor, Black, and brown families trapped in endless punishment, preventing millions from accessing their basic needs. Here's why it must pass: 🧵
Proud to be part of this team making this a change in NY! @GovKathyHochul - now is the time to show up for survivors and sign this into law.
Proud to be part of this team making this a change in NY! @GovKathyHochul - now is the time to show up for survivors and sign this into law.
BREAKING: The Fair Access to Victim Compensation Act is officially heading to @govhochul’s desk! We want to thank our sponsors @DemondLMeeks & @SenatorMyrie for fighting for survivors' rights and to @NYSenDems @NYSA_Majority for carrying this bill through to the finish line. A 🧵
BREAKING: The #FAVC Act passed out of the Assembly Ways and Means today! We're so close to ensuring that ALL survivors in #NY have fair access to victim compensation. @CarlHeastie help us bring it to the floor! Contact your legislators at: bit.ly/favcpetition

A young Black man experiencing homelessness and mental health challenges was murdered on the subway. The man responsible has not yet faced any consequences. This is the New York that @NYCMayor & @GovKathyHochul have created through their policy failures. gothamist.com/news/no-charge…
