Super interesting and it's cool to learn about the markets where urban agriculture is actually well-positioned to make a huge difference. Learning that 40% of urbanites in sub Saharan Africa garden was insane
The lessons in this piece are an amazing gift (as is the author, who I'm honored to call my professor!)
One of the most heartbreaking and transformative essays I've read in a long, long time. Couldn't recommend more
Totally harrowing.
Isabel Fall was on a path to living as an out trans woman with a career writing science fiction, and now, she says, there will be no more Isabel Fall stories. She is done writing under that name, and she now considers “Isabel Fall” an impossible goal to achieve, a person she will never be.
“I don’t know what I meant to do as Isabel,” she says. “I know [that publishing “Attack Helicopter”] was an important test for myself, sort of a peer review of my own womannness. I think I tried to open a door and it was closed from the other side because I did not look the right shape to pass through it.”
Wow.
Very hard hitting and clear eyed. 10/10.
Hit hard and felt very important to read, although sad.
Crazy read.
