40 Acre Conservation League seeks to protect land for future generations (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As you may know, I have a podcast called Earthmovers that features conversations with trailblazers who are reclaiming the narrative in their respective spaces of influence. I recently had the opportunity to speak with Jade Stevens, cofounder of the 40 Acre Conservation League, California’s first Black-led land conservancy. Jade is a POWERHOUSE and somebody who gives me faith in our future. The name of the conservancy pays homage to a broken promise made to formerly enslaved African Americans aft

It has been a busy two weeks! This past weekend, I traveled to Richmond, Virginia to participate in a race – Run Richmond 16.19. Run Richmond 16.19 is an experience that takes participants through 400+ years of Black history, with the name referencing the year that marked the arrival of the first recorded Africans in Hampton, Virginia. It was a powerful weekend of movement and reflection. All of this is part of my training for the New York City Marathon, which is now just six weeks away. I’m sti
As SPS teacher strike looms, a look at the history of school strikes (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Just like that: we are back to school. Well, maybe. If you live in Seattle, you know that there is currently the threat of a teacher strike that would delay the start of school.

If you follow me on Instagram (which you should!), you would know that I’ve been training hard for an upcoming race. I haven’t yet revealed it publicly, so you are hearing it here first: I am excited to be training for the NYC marathon this fall! This will be my 6th NYC marathon and 8th marathon overall, but the first where I feel, so far, like I’m really going to crush it. I have never been a competitive person. I have always wanted to do my best and feel good about my effort, but I’ve never fe
Hunters of Color aims to reconnect BIPOC with ancestral traditions (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This past weekend, I was meant to go elk hunting. And I was VERY excited about it. Growing up on the East Coast, hunting was something I knew very little about but had very strong opinions about. I don’t know when I was first exposed to the idea of hunting, but on principle I was against it. Killing animals for sport seemed unnecessarily cruel. When I got older, my issue with hunting became more complex. I came to understand the connection between hunting and our food system, but I also saw how
