Trauma Survivor | System Disruptor | Political Reaper

Jerica Morningstar is a 24-year-old trans woman and self-taught investigator who turned her pain into power—and her story into a weapon. Born into poverty and silence in Northwest Arkansas, she survived sexual abuse, relentless bullying, and multiple suicide attempts. Her first novel, Years Gone, was written as a suicide note—but it didn’t end that way. It sparked a fire.

By 2025, under the alias Lilith Blackwell, she authored The Manufactured Outrage Machine—an explosive exposé that mapped a $160,000 political fundraising scheme tied to Maine State Rep. Laurel Libby. Using nothing but public records and pattern recognition, Jerica connected PACs, nonprofits, consultants, and media into a coordinated machine of outrage-for-profit—without a newsroom, legal team, or institutional backing.

When watchdogs stayed silent, she wrote a law.

The Outrage Exploitation Prevention Act (OEPA) is Jerica’s legislative answer—designed to criminalize the political monetization of marginalized trauma, especially involving minors. It’s the first civilian-authored bill of its kind, filed in Maine and protected under the First Amendment.

Jerica’s work is not sponsored. It’s not filtered. And it doesn’t ask for permission. She is not chasing clout. She is chasing accountability.

“They called me emotional, unstable, dangerous. But no one could refute the evidence.”

She continues to write dystopian fiction, political frameworks, and survivor-led narratives that expose power, reclaim voice, and rebuild truth from the wreckage. Her next chapter is already being written—and this time, the system won’t see it coming.
