Before fire season there is the labor of Latino immigrant workers deep down in the canyons and on the hills of Orange County clearing dead and dry brush to protect countless homes. My father, Juan, in a sombrero (center) with his crew. #visibilitymatters

Guess who will be doing all that brush clearing to keep our communities safe in the future? Often those whose families are most vulnerable to draconian immigration regimes…

Thanks @cenmag. It was speaking freely and honestly in that interview, fully in my queerness and blackness. You don't have to live all the hopes of the generation before you, but it is a blessing when you can step into the power they built with you.

I wanted to share an incident between the CSULB campus police and myself. Please see the statement by my union and I that outlines the disrespectful interaction I experienced with campus police as I tried unsuccessfully to get them to unlock my office door.
