didn't sleep last night re: protests, went to bed in the AM. woke up to over 10 messages of support. i've struggled to think i'm a good critical thinker forever, so the responses to my thread have been overwhelming. ty @nimrod, @tayarisha, @jeremyoharris, Janicza, @marklotto, etc

these are thoughts that have been ruminating in my head for a while that i'm putting into an essay about so-called alternative blackness (which is just an over-identification with white hipster aesthetics most of the time). https://twitter.com/SafyHallanFarah/status/1265844658028138496
