Learning to See Black Men Clearly Again.
I grew up on a block where childhood felt like one long, shared backyard. We weren’t just neighbors—we were a roaming crew of kids who inherited each other because our houses shared the same sidewalk and our parents trusted the street to raise us as much as they did. The boys were Jarrett, who lived down the street; Michael, right next door; and later Brian, who moved in across from them. The girls were Valerie and her cousin Simone, and my siblings and the younger kids drifted in and out of our group depending on the day. Some friendships faded quickly, some lasted a few summers, but the only friendship from that time that truly lasted was with a girl—my best friend. That says something too.

The Brick Wall and the Swimming Pool
Everyone thinks they remember childhood clearly. We swear we know what was said, who said it, how it felt, and what it meant. But memory is a slippery creature. It bends. It edits. It protects. It romanticizes. It erases. And sometimes, it rewrites the same moment into two completely different stories depending on who’s holding it.

Notes from the Mind Palace
I’m not the kind of person you understand in one sitting. Most people meet me and think they’ve got me entirely figured out within the first five minutes. They see someone loud, expressive, fast-moving, a little chaotic, and a little sharp around the edges. They look at the alternative clothes, hear the heavy music, and assume that the outer shell is the whole story. They don’t realize that’s just the surface tension. It’s the glare on top of dark water. The real story runs underneath, miles below the noise, quieter, stranger, and far more deliberate than anyone outside ever gives me credit for. If you only look at the velocity on the outside, you miss the gravity on the inside.

What Causes a Man’s Midlife Crisis?
There’s a popular image of a man going through a midlife crisis: he suddenly buys a sports car, changes his wardrobe, starts going out more, or decides he needs a dramatic new career. While these stereotypes can be amusing, a midlife crisis is often about something much deeper. For many men, it can be a period of questioning their identity, relationships, achievements, and the direction their life is taking.
