- I was 9 years old when I met Thomas Sayers Ellis. I called him “little Malcolm” then because of his glasses, and knew the “Sayers” was due to him being nice with a football. He was a complicated man (to put it delicately) and a brilliant poet, drummer, and photographer. May his death be peace.

- I finally saw #Sinners 🩵. Friends had been texting me, saying it reminds them of Black in Blues. I see the common ground: the Blues, jaybirds, hoodoo, the crossroads, recursive time, blue beads, life after death. That font of the deep Black south is feeding so many of us right now.
