Why is Black Like Me No Longer Accepting Submissions?
Black Like Me is now strictly a Writer Showcase Publication.
Black Like Me is one of the gazillion new publications on Medium and my stories primarily focus on the need for social change, as well as other black related issues and concerns.
When I first started the publication, aimed at inspiring and lifting up African Americans in every way, I had very high hopes for the outcome.
But as I brought out in two recent stories about creating Medium publications and being an editor, things didn’t turn out like I planned.
You can read about it later, or in a few minutes when you’re done here.

So now that I’ve shared those feeling to the Medium community, I’ve decided to make things official, by posting my intended plans for my remaining 3 publications, starting with Black Like Me.
I will not be accepting submissions for Black Like Me any longer, however, I will continue to write and post informative and entertaining stories here by myself.
