hi world, I’m Meron

I’m an Ethiopian-American writer based out of Seattle.

I started this blog because I needed the space to write long form about all the things keeping me up at night. 

I’m most passionate about politics (global and domestic), social policy, and criminal justice. I like to write social commentary that pushes us to interrogate our beliefs, and to challenge the systems around us.

My work is deeply referential of historical contexts, leans on Black feminist frameworks, and is consistently grounded in critiques of capitalism and colonialism. 

When I’m not writing, I am most often reading, watching movies and shows, taking pictures, or traveling the world.
