My Background...
By way of background, I am currently a sixth-year Ph.D. candidate in the Department
of Political Science at the University of Pennsylvania. I study issues of race, disability,
democracy and human rights. My most recent article was on the subject of disability
and genocide, read more. I earned undergraduate degrees in English and Psychology
from Rutgers University, and Master’s and law degrees from Howard University. I have
won many awards, worked for prestigious law firms, held competitive internships and
performed volunteer work all while battling my disease. I have written a short op/ed
about some of my experiences, read more . Unfortunately, my condition has
progressed to the point where I am no longer able to work or volunteer. Because of
the muscle wasting associated with my disease, I suffer weakness and fatigue, have
neurological issues, am only able to walk short distances and can neither eat nor
drink. I receive all nutrition through a tube in my stomach. Presently, my condition
continues to deteriorate.

This photo represents my confrontation of not only race and disability, but also class
and sexuality, as seen through my own experiences as a disabled Black man who
once earned a six-figure salary, Read more
