And finally, part I of my award-winning series for @civileats.com about the Wampanoag fishers who are asserting their right to fish in Cape Cod’s dying waterways, and what their tenacity means for their culture and the environment writ large civileats.com/2024/08/21/o...
On Cape Cod, the Wampanoag Assert Their Legal Right to Harvest the Waters
Not everyone respects that right. But the Wampanoag are determined to continue, saying their work is an essential expression of 12,000 years of heritage, sovereignty, and lifeways.

A deep-dive into Gen Z’s obsession with being a “blue-collar babe” despite the constant harassment that women in the trades experience online and on job sites. For @popsugar.com: www.popsugar.com/careers/blue...

My latest for Offrange about the most abundant protein source right under our feet at low tide — the slipper snail — and the fishers, chefs, and advocates across New England who are working to get it onto our menus and into our fish markets ambrook.com/offrange/liv...

My favorite story for @popsugar.com was also the site’s top performing IG post for the month of September: a dispatch on how birding culture has taken over the internet, and what that means for conservation www.popsugar.com/hobbies/rise...
Suddenly Birding Is the Hot-Girl Hobby of the Year
Birding — AKA watching, listening to, and sometimes tracking birds in the wild — was once an overlooked pastime. Now it's the hot-girl hobby of the year.
