Hi All, my name is Austin and I’m the author of I’m Still Here: Black Dignity in a World Made for whiteness. I honestly really valued Twitter- but not because of ads or brands or numbers. It has been a place where I’ve met people that have transformed my life. This community doesn’t need to look like that one, but I do hope for thoughtfulness, humor and connection. Also Black people, if I’m honest. #blacktwitter #racialjustice #writer
