Berkeley, CA

“As the team was wrapping up a meeting in the University of California, Berkeley’s High Performance Center for Athletics, my coach called me to the front of the room. “My heart was pounding in my chest as I walked to stand next to him. Once I met his gaze, I slowly turned around. This was the first moment I remember addressing the twenty-two remaining members of my team. Everything was silent. Then, I hear him start to talk about the qualities of a leader and finally he says the words, ‘Anja will be Captain of the Cal Women’s Soccer team starting today!’

But climate change could cause these critters' numbers to dwindle, according to wildlife experts. Like polar bears, Pikas may predict warmer temperatures, scientists say.

During my childhood, when my family visited relatives “across the river,” in Bayou Plaquemine, Bayou Goula, Caddo, the Pointe, and White Castle, my siblings and I would sometimes race up and down the levees, some distance away from the cows grazing there. At the summit of the hill, you could see the Mississippi River waters through stands of trees and brush. It never occurred to me that our “playground” was the living testimony of Black men, prisoners of the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola whom the state of Louisiana had re-enslaved in the convict leasing system.
