Sarah Thomas

I’m Sarah Thomas (AKA Rainn). I’m a writer and artist based out of Chicago. I’m also currently a features contributor for The Onion.

 

My work focuses on:

Black sexuality

Black feminism

Religous trauma
Pop culture

 

I believe that inclusive sex education should be mandatory and mac n cheese should always be baked. 

 

I’m usually hunched over a laptop with both a beer and coffee in Logan Square, or surrounded by my house plant collection at home.
