Writing, resistance, and community for those who refuse to look away.
A choice to act changes the world.
After years of watching global events unfold, I reached a point where inaction felt like complicity. So I built the communities I needed to make sense of what was happening, take action, and find others who felt the same way.
Letters From America
In the early months of 2025, I offered to be a penpal to Americans who wanted to share their stories of life in Trump’s America: for preservation, for visibility, and solidarity.
Across hundreds of letters from every kind of person, in 42 states and counting, these stories tell us the human cost of what is happening and what resistance actually looks like.

The main hub of my writing, analysis, and activism.
