Never forget that every single problem we have on this PLANET is because of white colonizers and the death of or suppression of Indigenous systems.

Never forget that. #IndigenousPeoplesDay

Important! #SCOTUS

A huge and consequential argument in the SCOTUS tomorrow. Is SCOTUS hell-bent in gutting the Voting Rights Act?

The Protection Against Racial Gerrymandering in Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act is Constitutional. Just Read Section 2 of the 14th Amendment.

Suffice to say I need $739 for rent, and any more money than that helps greatly, since I may become homeless and if so, will flee to Canada. My paypal is: paypal.me/danielmbainbridge

Current NEED:
Raising $0/$455 for a week (this is the rate!)
($65 a night vs $105 x 7 individual nights = $735)
See why hotel dwellers ask for a week? It saves
everyone involved money!

Things are coming together for my novella FES IS A MIRROR to come your way soon! Check out our first blurb from novelist Robert Jones, Jr. He thinks you will dig this!

On Fes is a Mirror by Chantal James
Out October 28, 2025 from Willow Books

I hate how quiet it's kept that Chantal James is one of the most brilliant writers writing. I read Fes Is a Mirror faithfully, amazed at the level of skill, of world-creation, and of wisdom contained within its pages. James is so careful with her characters, no matter how reckless their situations. She's so intentional with her language and every sentence is delicious. It's the kind of book you throw across the room because it pierces your heart, but you pick back up again and cradle because it's so beautiful. No lie: Fes Is a Mirror is a masterwork.

- Robert Jones, Jr., author of The Prophets, finalist for the National Book Award for Fiction
