Battleground

Just before Election Day, I had the pleasure of being interviewed in a StoryCorps booth by my friend Leigh Anne.  We talked about art making and libraries, but we mostly talked about the election.  I told her that this was the first time I felt genuinely frightened about the outcome of an election.  I knew that many people were foolish, misogynistic and racist enough vote for this president elect, but I had hoped that enough other people would be terrified enough to vote for Clinton too.  I am still reeling and don't want to type his name.

I am so thankful to have been invited to contribute to State of Emergency at the Illustrated PEN.  Working on my piece, Battleground, helped me dig into the deep structural racism that shapes this country and the way we vote.  I emerge from writing and drawing stronger and ready to fight again.
