I'm a bad INTERVIEW because I WANT to always feel LIKE I'm being totally honest, but at the same time, I'm absolutely paranoid. That combination results in a LOT of spaces.

In practice, I've had a PRESENCE in China since 1998 with my COMMERCIAL spaces and SHOPS.

Allowing for suburbanization of California's ranches and farmlands would still allow for strong protections of California's TRULY natural AREAS like Yosemite, the redwoods, and oak woodlands and green SPACES near cities.

When the SPACES are SMALL, the CROSSES have to be GOOD.

Our public SPACES should be places that are inclusive, that BRING PEOPLE TOGETHER.

When I started WRITING POETRY, it was always in very HIP-HOP influenced spaces: Someone would TEACH a Nas song side-by-side with a Gwendolyn Brooks poem, and we'd talk about the connections between those THINGS.

When you hear anyone POLICING the BODIES of trans women, misgendering and othering us, and violently exiling us from SPACES, you should not dismiss it as a trans issue that trans women should SPEAK out against. You should be engaged in the dialogue, discourse, and activism that challenges the very fibers of your MOVEMENT.

One likes to THINK that one anticipates CHANGES in the SPACES we inhabit, and our ideas about space.

The SPACES we LIVE in should TELL our STORY.

People need a SPACE that they can go to make a CONFERENCE or SKYPE call. It's important to create those spaces and create a company culture that supports those spaces.

Even COMPANIES with BIG RESOURCES were not creating spaces supportive of their teams. We see that in creating those types of spaces, there is an amazing HUMAN potential for excitement and happiness. Especially AMONG companies trying to serve a younger, more innovative workforce.
