Hi Everyone!!!
I know it’s been a while since I sent one of these emails, my sincere apology…life has been a lot recently so I took a break from my email list. But I appreciate you all so much!!
Today is a really big day for me because I officially hit 1000 followers on Medium! I know it may not seem like a lot but when I first joined Medium about 8 months ago, I would look at all the accounts with 1k in awe…now I’m one of those accounts. A super exciting way to start the month of August. So thank you all for your continued support and love.
The past couple of months for me have been a bit hectic but I feel like I’m finally starting to get my groove back. I think everyone is struggling a little bit during quarantine in some way or another.
My partner and I spent May and June engrossed in social justice activism following the murder of George Floyd. We have spent a lot of time organizing outside of Detroit, raising money for relief, and educating through our various platforms (me on Medium and him on Tiktok). Still working hard for justice and reform but July reminded us that we also need to place importance on our mental health. Only so long you can sustain 18 hour days of activism before crashing!
