Kindred is looking for writers

Black mothering folks and parents—I’m seeking pitches for reported essays for Kindred by Parents.com.

My interests are open. But I’m seeking the voices we’re missing when discussing Black parenting and mothering—especially queer/trans folks, disabled folks, and Black folks in low Black population regions.
