How do we become better allies? 

I know three people in my life well-poised to answer that question: Nkeiruka Medani, PJ Bastiany and Curtis Graves. They shared their stories with me and Honest Fiction subscribers, addressing different personal matters — from sexual tokenization of Black women to a multi-year saga on politicized hair. 

Congressman John Lewis, a standard bearer of the civil rights movement in U.S. politics, once said: “The movement without storytelling, is like birds without wings.” So, hear their unique personal accounts growing up in “Amerikkka” and your questions addressed directly in a safe space, and we can kick off the learning and awareness process as allies.
