Sa'iyda clasps her fiancee's face in her hands and looks at her lovingly. They stand beneath a rainbow umbrella. Sa'iyda is a Black woman who is wearing blue glasses and a leather jacket and has short hair. Beth, her fiancee, is a white woman with curly short brown hair and black glasses who is wearing a gray jean jacket. An engagement ring is conspicuously visibile on Sa'iyda's hand!

Sa'iyda Shabazz

Sa’iyda is a writer and mom who lives in LA with her partner, son and 3 adorable, albeit very extra animals. She has yet to meet a chocolate chip cookie she doesn’t like, spends her free time (lol) reading as many queer romances as she can, and has spent the better part of her life obsessed with late 90s pop culture.

Sa'iyda Shabazz has written 150 articles for us.
