A late 30s, oncology PhD, former film festival press/blogger who is jumping back into the blogging world. This blog is a collection of perspectives on relationships, culture, and activism from a single, Black Xennial.

Louisiana-born, resident of Atlanta who was probably British in another life. Hobbies include dancing like I think I’m still 21, listening to the same song on repeat 20x in row, avoiding cleaning my home, repeating words or phrases for emphasis, and being the only person that hasn’t seen ‘Hamilton’.

I’m so proud of Georgia! Georgia went blue for the presidential election and then to prove it wasn’t a fluke, we went all the way blue for the GA senate runoff race to be the decider for who control the Senate! So proud to have lived in Atlanta for almost 2 decades now and have been able to witness how far people of color have come in become more politically involved and aware. Love how we all came together for this great cause and hope we can keep it up for the future. Looking forward to see what Senators Warnock and Ossoff do to keep the country moving forward!
