Also they keep trying to get me to claim someone else's books so there's that

Why did I learn how to read?

Apples and cheese or elote for a midday snack? I didn't prep a lunch and do not feel like actually cooking or ordering out

So in a "The Irish never owned slaves conversation" around Sinners I said truthfully that the name O'Bannon appears in my family tree alongside Gamble and Campbell and those are all plantation owners so...tuck it the fuck in. I might have soared too close to the sun though apparently I have cousins

The laugh this got out of me...

I'm going to be speaking at UIUC a bunch this year, and I am trying to prep everyone for the moment I tell students that I used this history degree to write for X-men

I didn't stop with segregated neighborhoods. A Duke study for Shame of Chicago determined at least $4 billion was plundered from Black buyers via overpriced predatory housing contacts while their white counterparts got equity & cheaper terms through mortgages www.chicagoreporter.com/the-plunder-...

So finally have all the paperwork for my great grandfather who was Canadian by birth and raised in Canada Virginia for at least part of his childhood. I even found his mother. The wild part to me? He was totally uninterested in settling down before 37. At which point he married a single mother
