Renee Nicole Good was a mother, a writer, and a neighbor. ICE took her life. She was showing compassion in her final moments — and the state responded with lethal force. Her death shook people because it made something clear: it could have been any of us. Driving by. Stopping to observe. Asking a question. Bearing witness. Existing in public.

This collection is a memorial, but it’s also refusal. Refusal to let her be reduced to a headline or a justification or a footnote in someone else’s narrative. Her words mattered. Her life mattered. And remembering her with beauty — flowers, color, tenderness — is one way we resist the normalization of state violence and the quiet erasure that always follows.

We wear her name so history doesn’t move on like nothing happened.

Included in this collection is anti-ICE gear, as this is what she was defending.
