Malachi Lily (they/them) is a neurodivergent, Philly-born and based, shapeshifting, agender Black person of liminal experience. They summon speculative fiction and metaphysical cultural commentary by weaving magick, Black-anarcho politics, and nature wisdom, dedicated to decomposing colonial fears of the unconscious, sexuality, and femininity. Lily was a fellow during the 2023 winter sessions of Tinhouse and Roots.Wounds.Words. In 2024, they were a writing resident at Stove Works, Queer Materials Lab, and Chateau d’Orquevaux. They are a Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association Fellow, a Trans Journalists Association Fellow, and a culture writer for In These Times magazine.
