If anything, I have witnessed the ways my art travels, or is rendered more accessible, when sanctioned by or connected to white artists.

My art career often feels less like an art career and more like a career in educating, usually by using my body.

In poetry, I didn't have to provide resolution. I could ask hard questions without feeling responsible for the answers.

I do use art as a site of protest, particularly in relation to dominant narratives.

I especially worry about the ways Canadians can be glib about our supposed difference from the US in our "acceptance" of "diversity."

I have been and continue to be committed to art as a tool to ignite, comfort, and discomfort.

Music is my first love, where my artistic journey began.
