In today's "New York Times Book Review," Ketanji Brown Jackson writes that she has "All That She Carried" by Tiya Miles on her night stand. I have "Night Flyer" on mine! I love the photo of you weeding in "Carrying Capacity." Much power and love to you, Tiya and friend of Helen Hill's, from Helen's momma, Becky
I'm so glad you told us about the wheat field, Tiya. It reminded me of the sunflowers and corn that Ekua Holmes and Elizabeth James-Perry planted in front of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. Did you happen to see that installation in 2021? I would have loved to see it in person but I live on the opposite side of Turtle Island. The idea of reclaiming the land by planting crops feels right on a very elemental level — and spreads such joy!
