Praise for Black. Fat. Femme. "With their unique purview, Jon centers the visibility, intersectional identities, and rich voices of the Queer Black community in media. A must-read for anyone and everyone."

-Steven Canals, Emmy-nominated writer, director, and producer "This book speaks so honestly about the continuously silenced Black, queer, American experience, and the life journey it takes to discover one's true self in a world determined to stop them at all costs."
-Jessica Marie Garcia, Actress, On My Block, writer and producer "Black. Fat. Femme. is the perfect blend of education, hilarity, and stories from the shady cousin that everyone deserves."
-Franchesca Ramsey, Creator and host of MTV's Decoded, and author of Well, That Escalated Quickly "Joining the cultural archive at a pivotal moment, Black. Fat. Femme. offers another possibility. In extending the visibility discourse, it defiantly and lovingly takes up space while encouraging others to do the same."
