5/27/19 discussion about Terry McMillan and her ex-lover

Here is the link to my May 27, 2019, Twitter thread discussion of the history of Terry McMillan and the lover who inspired her novel How Stella Got Her Groove Back.

While I believe my heart was sort of in the right place with this thread -- I really wanted to defend LGBTQ people -- I nowadays believe this to be one of the most tone-deaf, culturally incompetent, self-righteous, and even racist threads I've ever written.

Twitter's platform has twisted each of my threads through 2018 and 2019 out of chronological order. This thread is very affected, and is only somewhat coherent. My apologies.

3/29/18 review of talk by CeCe McDonald and Joshua Allen

Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of a March, 2018, talk given by CeCe McDonald and Joshua Allen at the University of Colorado Denver on the Auraria Campus.

The thread gives a summary of the talk and some context on McDonald, Allen, and their Black Excellence Tour. The thread discusses a lot of themes from the talk, such as helping LGBTQ people in our own families, checking in with our friends, starting locally with helping LGBTQ people, questioning our own privilege, the disproportionate violence trans people of color face, and the media visibility of trans people today.

The tweets in some of my threads have been twisted out of chronological order by Twitter's platform. This thread's coherency has been moderately affected. My apologies.
