98% of the citations in my dissertation are Black scholars (mainly women and femmes) and 100% of my course materials for the classes I teach are Black authors/media folk/etc. I am intentional about always prioritizing Black scholarship in my work and in my classes.

Rico Wade was a portal
A builder of worlds
An investor in human spirits
The sub in yo chest
The snap-back in yo neck
An indelible, fast talking, fast moving, electric presence
Our irreplaceable brother..
May his spirit guide us and comfort us til we are done with this world
