I’ve joined @us.theguardian.com as a columnist. I’ll be on my usual beat, covering power, identity, and culture — with an eye on how people advance civil rights outside of electoral politics. I'm looking forward to the work ahead.

This work grows out of questions I’ve been reporting on and wrestling with for years. I’m thankful to my editors at @us.theguardian.com for welcoming me aboard — and to my partner, family, and friends who gave me the push I needed.
