DERICA SHIELDS is writing and editing. Most recently, she is a story editor at Rookie, and a contributing editor at The New Inquiry.
In 2013, Derica co-founded The Future Weird, a film screening and discussion series where she curated weird, experimental and speculative films by black and brown directors. Here’s an interview she did about that. That project has ended, and the email thefutureweird@gmail.com is no longer in use. Contact her directly at derica.shields@gmail.com.
