Last Night in Brooklyn is almost here! So much love to all the people - photographed and otherwise - whose memories fueled these pages! This one's for my friends... past and present. Oh, the times we had….

Lately, when I come on here I have mainly felt uplifted by how much we are all realizing that WE are the heroes we need and power is gonna come from the people. But this #Kanye show has me a little down…the average person doesn’t get a lot of chances to flex power. At the voting booth if we are lucky, in the streets, AND at the cash register. We downplay the value of our dollars as a means of expression of values in a capitalist society… money can normalize almost anything. Ye is just a low hanging example of how much we need to better realize our spending power is a cultural force… #class #kids #money #power

NOUGH SAID😤😍😍🧿💖 Thank you Book of the Month for choosing LNIB as an April add-on! Hope to see all the conversations Alicia and Garza and their Brooklyn Crew will spark and the ways they’re embraced by this community of new readers. #lastnightinbrooklyn #bookofthemonth

March: surreal mix of work, worry for the world and really beautiful humans making art. There is just an infinite amount of cruelty around us right now, but I never stop being affirmed by the power of time around people. ❤️
