So proud and grateful to have a story in the Marvel anthology, Captain America: The Sheild of Sam Wilson. It's out now, so head to the bookstore or go online and purchase that, and check out my story, "Plug In, Plug Out."

Calloway published a dictionary (with a few editions!) of jazz vocabulary and I cannot emphasize how (pleasantly) surprised I was to see how old so much of current Black slang is. These are from the 1944 edition.

I pledged to support this cool new project out of Amsterdam. Check out Rise of the Mafu: The Graphic Novel by First Noble Studios on @Kickstarter #afrofuturism #graphicnovels

60 years ago today, John Coltrane recorded his ultimate masterpiece: "A Love Supreme" This album, recorded in only one day (yes, you read that right), intertwines his musical genius with his spiritual awakening… But how did this album came into existence? A thread🧵
