The best thing about being a writer are the many ways the writer, like any artist, can lose and find oneself in the imagination.

“No more ashes. No more fires. Only love. And the unbridled urgency to build a world where the edges are imagined as the starting place for black liberation now and always.”
― No Ashes in the Fire: Coming of Age Black and Free in America
― No Ashes in the Fire: Coming of Age Black and Free in America
“Americans travel so quickly to the edge of our love, I thought. We police the borders of care, and black people know very well what it feels like to always be omitted from the democratic concern centered on white peoples, and to occupy a position of dereliction.”
― No Ashes in the Fire: Coming of Age Black and Free in America
― No Ashes in the Fire: Coming of Age Black and Free in America
“Too few are asking us the questions to get to the depths of black queer boys' traumas. What is it that you desire but have been denied? What is that you need to feel safe? How do you actually feel about the person you had sex with? What is it about him you desire? What are the sources of your pain? Who hurt you? Who first told you that your sexual desires and attractions were wrong? Does it feel better when you use a condom? Do you feel more connected when you don't use a condom at all? What is it about that particular connection that fulfills you? To ask those questions would mean black boys and men would have to be seen, first, as bleeding, crying, vulnerable and sometimes resilient human persons. We are breakable...Black same-sex love is revolutionary because we must first convince ourselves we are deserving of receiving and giving what has been denied us for so long.”
