Y’all. Andrea Gibson lost their battle with cancer this morning. About five hours ago, in fact.

They leave behind an unjust world with a little bit of magic from people like them. People who make the human experience worth fighting for.

Here’s a quote I posted from them earlier this year.

I welcome you to read a poem or listen to some spoken word from Andrea, to honor their life.

Rest in power, Andrea.
