A Navigation of Black Queerness
Behind the scenes look of the creative and analytical processes.
ENGW 105 - Reflective Writing Portfolio
A Navigation of Black Queerness is project born from my time in ENGW 105 - Reflective Writing Portfolio, during my fall semster of 2024.
We covered a lot on the evolution of writing and storytelling, including the topics of African-American rheotric and the use of multimedia elements. Those topics and more will be covered throughout this portfolio page.
For the best expereince, I reccommend going top to bottom which will cover my refelection of the course, the project that I created and then some of the behind the scenes efforts that went into creating this whole expereince.
​
I hope you enjoy and gain something from your time here. I would love to hear any comments, reflections, and feedback.

This is an interactive story experience on the parallels of Black queerness and the spiral of silence theory for those deserving validation, those seeking to learn, and those wanting to expand their knowledge.

This remix project was not created over night and required much planning and intentional actions to create something cohesive and impactful. After viewing the interactive expereince for yourself, I invite you to check out some of the drafting steps that I completed along the way. ​
This was the start of this project where I dumped all of my ideas. As you can see, there are a lot of parallels but the nuances and intracies have evolved.
