I hired a #sensitivityreader on Fiverr for a final review of my m/s. A 2nd SR, as I'm anxious to avoid #whitegaze errors.
The results exceeded all expectations. A really insightful 100 page report--and clearly not AI generated.

Full portrait of Black young man looking at the camera with a wistful smile, wearing a pink baseball cap, pink sports trousers and a black hoodie with creative white text, holding one hand in his pocket and his mobile in the other hand. Portrait shot at sharp angle shows the young man standing almost on a diagonal, head close to upper left corner, feet close to lower right. Lower left corner shows the corner of a black door with white door frame and windows parallel with the man. Upper right, row of bicycles in perspective.

My first street portrait!

Thank you, beautiful stranger.
