Truly a beautiful and Black time was had in NOLA at the Black Media Studies Conference. There is a particular kind of affirmation of scholarship and community I received here and I’m really excited about continuing to be a part of building and extending these spaces.

I watch this performance a few times a year. Twitch was SO good. One of the best dancers I’ve ever seen. Been a fan since his first appearance on SYTYCD. My heart hurts for his family and friends. May his journey be peaceful. I wish the world was a softer place. 🖤

I can't tell you how many times I've rewatched this performance when it first aired by Twitch and Alex Wong on SYTYCD. One of the best things that I've ever seen. RIP Twitch 💔
