ABOUT ME
My name is Brittany Talissa King. I am a freelance writer, journalist, and writing instructor at Indiana University. I studied under author Ta-Nehisi Coates, which broadened my scope on the art of language. I graduated from New York University, receiving my Master’s in Journalism (Cultural Reporting and Criticism) in 2019. I’ve been published in The Republic, The Daily Beast, Washington Square News, Forward Magazine, Fractyll Magazine, Tablet Magazine, ZORA magazine, Digital Diplomacy, and I’m a featured writer on Medium.
