I was today years old when I learned that Gay couples used adult adoption as a legal work around beginning in the 70s to gain medical, legal, & financial benefits. Thank u @RasheedNewson for teaching me this in #mygovernmentmeanstokillme@nytimes
Exciting news!
I've been accepted into @LambdaLiterary 2024 Writers Retreat for Emerging LGBTQ Voices for screenwriting with @RasheedNewson!
So excited to polish some screenplays and shift into the goal of my 30s to pursue screenwriting (and make my film agent happy lol)
The industry wouldn't buy my script so I sold a book instead.
"Black Fat Femme: A Celebration of Intersectional Identity Through Media" out spring of 2025.
I love it here.
“Don’t reject the space you gravitate towards just because the windows aren’t stained glass and the congregation isn’t saved.” what a word!!!! @RasheedNewson#mygovernmentmeanstokillme
On producing miracles in television...
(Listen to this full conversation between me and @MattBaume on his podcast "The
Sewers of Paris.")

Join us at the Cliff Cave Branch in reading a selection of LGBTQ+ authors and/or main characters. This month we will be reading "My Government Means to Kill Me" by Rasheed Newson. Copies are available at the desk and on Libby.
