After my piece came out in The Atlantic, the city pushed hard to take away my credibility as a “journalist”-

I appreciate accountable journalism that puts people first. I’m not perfect, but I fact check everything I write 10x more than I need to. I check my sources and quote check everything. Because I know my work will always be checked 10x more because of what I write and who I am.
I probably shouldn’t have tweeted this thread but it’s ok. I’m gonna keep trying my best to give underrepresented communities a voice and platform.
