Delano Burrowes is a Brooklyn writer/poet/artist/curator whose work explores how Black, BIPOC, and queer people navigate the in-between spaces of our identities. His writing has been published in The Rumpus, Huffington Post, and other places. In 2019, he co-curated In Contemplation of Freedom, a three part series of community events which brought poetry, visual and performance art, music, conversation and debate to people who have historically been ignored by art institutions. He is the creator of the Great Barrington Project: Unbleaching the Souls of Black Folk, a 2022 multi-city art and discussion experience that asks us all to confront how we see Black people. He is currently working on a memoir about overcoming addiction, shame and internalized racism.

Delano, you walking around Bed Stuy with anger sputtering in your brain pan like burning bacon makes no sense. My wife and I were there for months, on Hancock....Black landlord, Black neighbors, whites too, Great time. Down on Fulton at Blink Fitness I came to know Black guys and we worked out and conversed cordially. What are we supposed to do, not rent there when my wife had a traveling nurse gig nearby?. Why are you so eager to promote conflict and discontent? Can you get past being Black and Queer and use your talent to create something not about yourself that is actually worth reading? Can you find no more conflicts - which can animate writing - other than the worn out black-white thing. My new screenplay is about the first Black foreman in Calif. finishing Highway 1 with convict labor, bit, great story. I taught for years down in S. Central L.A. in the shadow of the Watts Towers. Sidney Poitier was my friend for decades. Would you begrudge me all those things with your simple ass hostility? Do you think it is acceptable that 90%+ of flash mob marauders are Black? Embarrassing everybody. If you so energized by injustice, find a way to volunteer to give some of these young brothers support and guidance to help them on their way! Fulton street is O.K. but it distressed me to see Black folks stealing from other Black folks from the outdoor display tables. work on that! And you don't want oat milk, don't buy oat milk! Come on, man, get bigger. Jam up and Jelly Tight!
