I’m Amber. A reader of thriller and horror fiction from Chicago. I’m big on human rights (especially relating to women and the BIPOC and LGBTQ communities). I may share the occasional political commentary followed by complete utter silliness all in the name of balance. Also, I hope you like cats. 🐈‍⬛

Starting to think I'm never going to have an entire wall covered in newspaper clippings, official documents, and photos, all linked by red string.

This morning I had the opportunity to share information about Organized Communities Against Deportations with some folks and I was kind of shamed by the level of gratitude - no one should have to be that grateful for common decency.
Home - Organized Communities Against Deportations
We are a movement against deportations and the criminalization of our people. Undocumented. Unapologetic. Unafraid. Unidxs.
