I typically spend at least one day a month helping coordinate a cleanup day at a rural African American cemetery. This month, we have three! We’ve had over 120 volunteers join us. It’s amazing to see such passion and dedication. You can read more about our work here: arcg.is/18Tajf0

Happy to have contributed to the Hometown Histories series at @contingent-mag.bsky.social. I wrote about Sarnia, a beloved place that "has been growing and dying in cycles for a hundred years." I share a peculiar love for this city, despite its toil on my kin. contingentmagazine.org/2024/10/29/t...
