What’s up fam? Yes, Garlin II is still alive and well :-) . Though I’ve been on a bit of an unofficial sabbatical, I am back with some great news.

The SuperSpade is launching a new feature called “Our Next Generation,” which will be written by our friend Sakara R.. I am both pleased and excited to have her contribute her writing to the site on a regular basis. Here is how she describes the series:

This feature is part of an ongoing project called Snapshots of America’s Black Youth. It will be a series of articles about what is going on with our youth in the Seattle area and abroad.

Enjoy the series and thanks for the continued support. As always, much love to B for holdin’ everything down.

One Love. One II.
