More from my @theblcklst.bsky.social evaluation: "Whether They Be is a very strong project in that it examines how the underlying power structures around sexual taboo, disability, and race hurt families through compelling characters in a well rendered historical fiction setting." 🎉💻

Thanks for this list. My adoption memoir: Blood Strangers. katherinebriccetti.com/blood-strang...

💖 Amy Sherald's exhibit at SF MoMA is stunning! A great way to spend an atmospheric river rainy day.
