As a bilingual dual citizen (American and Panamanian) who is a lupus survivor and writes about depression and happens to be a full-time homosexual, I write from the intersection of various communities. To date, my essays have been included in curricula at Emory State University, California State University-Chico, and New York University.
More of my personal writing can be found at thecoloredboy.com. My freelance work can be found here: alexanderhardy.contently.com.
Also, I don’t believe in snow.
