Insisting you can separate the art from the artist is a move to innocence. It tells me you want to read the book without reckoning with how their racist transphobic beliefs are woven into the story You can't perform an exorcism on the things we write. You can't amputate us from our body of work

I have a new piece out Reflecting on 20 years of migrant struggles, it goes into what abolish ICE does - and doesn't - mean; merging of immigration enforcement with policing & military power; and how fascism is made through bordering. Despite resisting it for so long, I also now define the border.

I'm reading David S Mura's A Stranger's Journey and in his section about racialized students in predominantly white MFA programs he talks about Standard Western English being the common language of writing, as opposed to Standard Black English. It's an interesting discussion.

I often feel inadquate to this moment. More than that, I feel that what I am *doing* is inadequate to this moment. In this blog I talk about participating in direct actions, but it isn't something I do often. We need more direct actions, bigger actions, more disruption, bigger disruptions.

"...fascism is a cultural project. [ ] It is a cultural project of dehumanization and disposal. So we need a cultural project of our own, rooted in a proliferating sense of empathy and solidarity. One that insists that we are all worth caring for and fighting for." We are ALL worth fighting for.

As a queer who grew up in the 90s, when it was completely normal to call everything you didn't like "gay," I'm begging y'all to push back on the use of homosexuality as an insult, even when it's leveled at people you hate. No, it's not more fitting because they're homophobic bigots. It's never cute.
