Writing
Writing has been a practice of liberation for me for more than three decades — a way of breaking silences, bearing witness, and reaching toward freedom. My work spans Black feminist inquiry, cultural production, healing justice, Dharma, and contemplative practice.
Substack - AfroLez®femcentric Perspectives
Black. Feminist. Lesbian. Survivor. Dharma practitioner and teacher. These are not just identities. They are portals. This work moves through them — toward compassionate truth, toward healing and accountability, toward freedom for all beings.
Lion’s Roar
Writings on Black liberation ancestors and Buddhist practice, including reflections on the Sacca (Truthfulness) Pāramī.
10 Ways to Find True Happiness
Medium
Essays rooted in cultural work, healing justice, and non-carceral approaches to harm — threads of inquiry that continue to inform my Dharma teaching.
The Feminist Wire
My writings published in The Feminist Wire, now archived at Harvard University, span more than six years of Black feminist inquiry — essays, cultural criticism, interviews, tributes, and profiles in the Feminists We Love series that celebrate feminists, queer artists, and cultural workers whose lives and work matter. As Associate Editor (2012-2016), I also curated and edited, including collaboratively, special multi-voiced global forums on Audre Lorde, Toni Cade Bambara, June Jordan, and love WITH accountability. While this collection is not a full compilation of my writings from my tenure (2011-2017), it represents a meaningful archive of that work.
