THE ALCHEMY OF BEING FOURTEEN: now available!

Winter and Arden Allister are two teenage sisters who’ve just moved from Memphis to San Francisco, and their interracial family is thrust into the bourgeoisie of San Francisco’s elite once the girls begin the year at an exclusive private school. But when Winter starts having problems with a boy at school and Arden continues to suffer inexplicable and terrifying blackouts, each girl must tease loose a separate thread of fate from their interwoven, close-knit identity as sisters in order to unravel the arcane mystery of who they really are. Once their futures are disentangled, Winter and Arden find that destiny has drafted them both into the oldest war the world’s ever known—but placed them on opposite sides.

Compromise? What is compromising? Compromising for what? Compromising for what reason? A man comes into my life and I have to compromise?  [Laughs] Stupid. - Eartha Kitt

I have this one term, for the kind of woman that my mother raised me to not be, I call it a ‘Do Nothin’ Bitch, or a ‘DNB‘. A chick that just tries to be pretty, and be taken care of by somebody else.

That’s why I think it’s hilarious if someone says my body looks masculine or something, I’m like; Listen, just because my body was developed for something other than f*cking millionaires, doesn’t mean it’s masculine. I think it’s femininely badass as f*ck because there’s not a single muscle on body that isn’t for a purpose because I’m not a do nothin’ bitch.- Ronda Rousey Audio Clip Used As An Intro To “Diva”

Speak Their Names is the first product launched by Kinship, a collaboration between Tatyana Fazlalizadeh and King Texas. These t-shirts highlight the names of black cis and trans women, and WOC whose lives were taken by State and sexual violence. 

Profit from the sale of the Speak Their Names shirt will be donated to Trans Women of Color Collective. Buy a shit here. 

There has been a lack of discussion around the death of black women and trans* people within our communities. We are deeply devastated by the rate of violence inflicted against the trans* community. The community experiences unemployment at twice the rate of the general population, with rates for people of color up to four times the national unemployment rate. Transgender people are four times more lively to live in poverty. Ninety percent of trans* people report experiencing harassment, mistreatment, or discrimination on the job. The oppressive systematic structure prevent many Black trans* folks from obtaining education, healthcare, protection, and secure housing. We hope by creating this work, we can offer visibility to the ones who have passed before us and give back to the community. It is extremely important for us to say each and every one of their names.
