Gillian is a black queer from Chicago, Illinois current studying at Hampshire College in Western Massachusetts. At Hampshire College they study Political and Social theory as well as Blackness. Gillian’s writing centers Black Liberation, QTPOC identity and the study of oppressive structures, while maintaining an analytical vantage point of these things. They have organized and contributed to Black Liberation groups such as #ChiStops, a working group of We Charge Genocide and Decolonize the Media Collective. During time off they can be found hyper-analyzing tv, binge watch cartoons and enjoying donuts.
