Behold new followers! My greatest hits…so far…✨

#ocsky

Illustration of my alien OC Alma staring out with her hand pressed against the glass window an unspecified spacecraft. Her skin is dark pink, her eyes bright green, and her curly hair is two toned bright blue/dark blue. An antenna springs out from atop of her head with a bright colored orb at the end of it. She stares into the unknown of space.

Illustration of my fantasy OCs Sylvie, an elf mage, and Marhiri a tiefling fighter. Marhiri arm bars Sylvie, however he’s very flustered as he stares at her. Sylvie looks at him just as flustered while holding her mages staff.

Earlier illustration of my OC Alma hugging her soon to be named companion affectionately. She’s still in her purple spacesuit and her hair is longer. Her companion is a human mechanic in a blue tank top with half his coveralls tied around his waist. Alma’s surprise hug causing him to become off balance and blush.

Cartoon doodle of dog me in my work clothes. This is literally my persona.

Exactly! And I don’t have any kids, so I try to be respectful but like at the same time I don’t want to see kids get hurt. Truly a mess of emotions. 😮‍💨

Trying to keep a straight face while I literally watch a young parent let the kids be reckless…like I’m trying to give grace but jfc…

Black folks are gaslit daily by white folks who don't even know their own selves (and often don't want to). White folks don't know themselves or their history. It's EXHAUSTING.

I just drop info and run these days, bc most white folks will attack anyone who might give them insight into themselves.

Saeed Jones @theferocity.bsky.social · 3d

This week at an event for THE PEOPLE’S PROJECT, a reader asked in a gracious and cheeky way what I would hope white readers in particular would get out of the book. Or more directly, what I would TELL white readers. And this was basically my answer:

African-Americans are experts on America.
