It feels weird, but I'm excited to say I just submitted all the chapters of my forthcoming book for first edits 🤩. It's about family money, wealth management, and poverty governance (surprise!). It's about systems of extraction and generational wealth. It's about laws, geographies, and narratives.

I've seen three different articles on this, because the guy who owns the company that makes this stuff reached out to the press. He's got 400,000 boxes of life-saving goo sitting in a warehouse, and if USAID won't accept it, he's going to have to throw it out.
An estimated 300,000 children globally are expected to lose access to a nutrient-dense peanut butter that’s specially formulated to treat severe acute malnutrition.
