The Disappearance of Security
At first I thought about her every day, every second. She crowded my worst nightmares and clouded my daydreams. I Googled her name several times a day hoping to see a positive update in her disappearance and news that she had returned home. However, as time aged and as her whereabouts got more confusing, she began to fade from my daily monitoring, but not from my thoughts. I had never met her, never came across the people who loved her, but little by little, Phoenix’s story merged into my own – a young, Black woman from the St. Louis suburbs who loved hard and trusted easily.

The Triangle of the St. Anne Marie
1964, Boston Harbor, Alexander Hayes. The St. Anne Marie is an antiquated beast; I approached the ship in dock, the presence it layed over the surrounding area was palpable. Although the smokestacks ended a fair few feet before the other ships, it imposed itself on the surrounding vessels and seemed to ride higher atop the water. The hull of the ship bristled with dents and scratches, which shone through the dull black protective coating. Strangely the damage made it shine in an almost divine way. The accommodating cabins and bridge seemed ripped straight from ancient Greece, or the southern equivalent; Wide pillars and soft white marble encapsulating a hewn wooden building. A veritable plantation house on the sea.

Why Isn't Anyone Listening to the Atlanta Murderer?
On Tuesday, March 16, Robert Aaron Long attacked women at three spa/massage parlors in Atlanta, Georgia, killing eight people. Six of those killed were Asian women. This sparked outrage, fear and controversy, especially in the Asian-American community. It has come at a time when violence and harassment towards Asian in the US appears to be quite high. And therefore, this is being addressed as an anti-Asian hate crime by seemingly everyone.

A boy named Steven
If you talk to any parent about their worst fears, I can almost guarantee child abduction will be one of them. Unfortunately, our society has countless pedophiles and adults who have done unspeakable horrors to children. My county has a website that registers addresses and photographs of local sexual predators.
