I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members.
At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

Christopher Kinnison, who owns a one-man law firm in the central Louisiana, is "tired of losing.”
His clients are among the thousands of people who had been detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement after President Trump took office.

A last lifeline in ‘detention alley’
Most of immigration lawyer Christopher Kinnison’s clients in rural Louisiana are detainees. Every week, more calls come in, and Kinnison hasn’t been able to process what his days at work are becoming.

The people of Maypearl trusted Police Chief Kevin Coffey.
Few were aware that Maypearl was the eighth law enforcement agency that Coffey had worked at in 11 years. And none could have predicted the destruction he would wreak in their town.
