My goal every day is to leave work feeling like I did something good. Nearly every journalist I know feels the same — a fierce desire to improve the lives of people in their community. Just want to let that sit.

I feel humbled to write about a pioneer in Southern gender, race, sexuality and class theory.
Minnie Bruce was described by one of her friends as a "sensual, passionate, loving, deeply, unapologetic, Southern, femme lesbian" and a "Bama girl" at heart.

In the '80s, there were about 200 lesbian bars around the US. Today, there are less than 20.
One of them is in Mobile, AL, and I got the chance to talk with the owners about what their bar means to them.

Being critical of the place you live doesn't mean you hate it. I want Alabama to be kinder, more just & fair, less judgmental. I want this because I live here & love it. Yes, it breaks my heart at times, but it is home.

One of the most important people in my life passed away last Friday. She helped me join the high school journalism staff in 8th gr., and she’s been there for me ever since. Even in college, I shared so much with her. It’s safe to say I wouldn’t be the same person without her.

Something I’ve found interesting reading about other colleges is that — while Mercer’s breaks are called Reading Days — most places are calling them Wellness Days.
In practice, I’m sure they’re the exact same, but it makes me think about the University’s priorities.
