Not me!! 😅

Get the semester started off right! 🙌

Thank you!!

I've been lucky enough to do a bunch of podcasts, interviews, and talks, but the two events that have been the most memorable were a talk that I gave at the Embassy of the Republic of Haiti and a panel at the @miamibookfair.bsky.social --these were truly special events!!

The book received an honorable mention for the Haitian Studies Association (@haitianstudies.bsky.social) biennial book prize and was included on the Times Literary Supplement (@thetls.bsky.social) 2025 Books of the Year!
