Sensitivity Reading

Accurately representing lived experience

Also known as “authenticity reading,” sensitivity reading isn’t about being politically correct. It is an assessment of a whole or part of a piece of writing for accurate and respectful representation of a particular group. I offer sensitivity reading in the following areas:

  • Black experience, particularly experience of Black women in Canada and as a second-generation Canadian
  • Experience as a historically-marginalized race in a rural setting/small town
  • Infant/pregnancy loss and miscarriage
  • Experience as a caregiver of individual with dementia
