Art is the heart and soul of who I am. And while my work isn’t perfect or profound, the act of creating whether it’s photography, watercolor portraits, writing, or my sad attempts at learning a musical instrument brings me real joy.

If we want to make a statement, and be true allies then we need to be physically present and physically active within our local communities.
We have to earn the right to be united with black women. We aren’t owed unity in any kind of way especially now.

Perhaps our capitalist culture has become so toxic that it has triggered a trauma response in us.
We’ve lost the third space, the ability to own homes, afford children or even healthcare.
Sex sells is no longer true here, what sells now is the illusion of peace.

In 2014 my first research paper as a graduate student analyzed astroturfing through Dawkins’ definition: A unit of cultural transmission that evolves through imitation. This laid the groundwork for understanding memes as cultural genes. (1/4)

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.
They run them bc people react to them the most.
If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.
It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

As I work through René Girard’s I See Satan Fall Like Lighting for my memetic pathos project, I find myself grappling between the tension between his emphasis on forgiveness and the harsh realities of the paradox of intolerance.

My street photography isn’t about documenting, its interpretation. These spots could have easily been missed or passed over as mundane, but when you stop to frame them, you see the poetry in the ordinary.

Memetic Pathos is my theory about how viral memes become emotional weapons in political rhetoric. It’s about imitation, rivalry, and scapegoating—why we laugh, cry, or rage over the same images. Dive into the chaos here:
