Celebrating Black History Month

Happy Black History Month! Many years ago I wrote my Harlem Renaissance story, “Conjuring Shadows,” to celebrate the movement and shine a light on the queer subculture surrounding that surrounded it. It’s still free to read at Expanded Horizons!

Illustration by Richard Bruce Nugent, who inspired “Conjuring Shadows.”
