MINNEAPOLIS — “Savage Conversations” is Choctaw writer Leanne Howe’s daring document of Mary Todd Lincoln’s insanity in 1875, 13 years after her husband, President Abraham Lincoln, was assassinated while attending a play at Ford’s Theatre in Washington, D.C. In Savage Conversations, Mary Lincoln’s insanity is linked to one of the 38 Dakota Indian men that were hanged in Mankato, Minn. in 1862.

Open Instagram, search @reztothecity and there is Nekiah Torres. She is undeniably beautiful and her fashion sense speaks for itself. She wears everything from a bright red knit set with fringe on the sleeves and legs. to a blue gingham dress with ruffles and a neon green puffer jacket. (Author note: Puffer jackets continue to be a fashion staple this winter season.) Torres always loved fashion, but growing up she didn’t always have access to the type of clothes she wanted to wear.
