Sample Book Insights:
#1 I have spent my life feeling alone and misunderstood. I have struggled to find places that accept me as my whole Black womanly self, and I have been rejected and abandoned for naming the realities of my oppressed experience as a queer Black woman.
#2 As a Black girl from a financially insecure, single-mom-led home, I was constantly made to feel uncomfortable by the racist rhetoric of the white supremacist status quo. I learned to tone myself down and never speak my truth or prioritize my comfort or well-being above that of my white counterparts.
#3 To be Black or Indigenous and a woman is to be in a state of constant grief and rage. #4 Anger is a natural response to the injustices that constantly occur in the world. Not caring is a privilege that we cannot afford.
