Andrea. Always and forever. Here are some of my favorite moments with you over the 20 years I was lucky to call you a friend. How smart the Earth was; to have made you and called you one of its own. How fortunate were we? To get to have you as long as we did. Rest well now, poet. You gave us so very much to love in this world. And Megan, you are deep in my heart today. 1. Andrea Gibson wearing a shirt I designed back in 2018 2. Hoodied and huddled, backstage on tour together, 2015 3. Backstage with poets before a show, 2007 4. Every dance floor with you (and drag queens) was better. 5. You invented the art of the embrace. I’ll take that wisdom with me forever. #AndreaGibson

For the New York Times, I wrote about the revolutionary and radical tenderness of Andrea Gibson. To read the full piece hit the link in my bio. Thank you Sarah Wildman (@swildman1) at NYT for knocking on my door for this one. I needed to write it. For Andrea, and all of us. #AndreaGibson

For @HarpersBazaarUS, I wrote an essay which is close to my heart, about my daughter and her friend Jen, who is transgender. (Read it in full at the link in bio.) I believe trans kids are being treated as collateral damage in a propaganda war occurring in an age of unprecedented and purposeful disinformation. It is aimed at stripping us of our empathy and distracting us from the real political violences taking place in the United States and abroad. I felt compelled to write this piece to offer another perspective to folks, especially those raising young children, in hopes of opening eyes (and hearts) to the suffering trans kids and the trans community as a whole are being made to endure. I hope this essay offers a more nuanced and personal entry point into this discussion that is often reduced to fearmongering falsehoods. Note: I’m leaving comments on for now. If you bring hate or hostility into them, I’ll delete and restrict. A trans child’s right to exist is not up for debate on my page. Shirt by @ConnerIves (all proceeds from the sale of the t-shirt go directly to @TransLifeline)
