I loved this piece and hearing you share during Black Writers Circle! I don't know if you read the work of Alexis Pauline Gumbs, but this piece reminded me a lot of the book "Undrowned: Black Feminist Lessons from Marine Animals" and I could feel and see those themes of connecting the animal with the anthropocene when fighting to survive in a dying world.
Olivia, it was such an honor to hear you speak during Black Writers Circle ❤️I love how your use of words create an image in my mind. You placed me right where you wanted me to be, as your reader!
