Hood Feminism by Mikki Kendall
"This was a good book, but I had trouble finishing it. The reasons for that, however, are mostly personal. I'm a black feminist, and most of this book is focused on educating white feminists on issues they may not typically consider feminist or associ" Read more of this review »

N.K. Jemisin
“His real name is on his ID, for example, but he has kept himself from looking closely at it. There are contacts in his phone that he isn’t interested in calling, texts he does not mean to answer. These are choices, he understands, as meaningful as his choice to remain in the city rather than fleeing on the next train to God knows where. He can be who he was if he wants to be, but only up to a point. Something about the old him is incompatible with the new identity that the city wants him to have. So he has chosen to be Manhattan, whatever that might cost.”
N.K. Jemisin, The City We Became

“I would find a way to make sure we never had to destroy something of ourselves just to stop other people from taking it. - Rosella”
Anna-Marie McLemore, Dark and Deepest Red

“Calling something a lie implies that one has the truth in one's mouth and swallows it. What if one can only speak -- only think -- what one suspects another person wants to hear? Then where is the truth? How does one learn to think it?”
Cyrus Grace Dunham, A Year Without a Name: A Memoir

“I was a cloud stuck inside a person I didn't choose to be.”

Osamu Dazai
“Now I have neither happiness nor unhappiness.

Everything passes.

That is the one and only thing that I have thought resembled a truth in the society of human beings where I have dwelled up to now as in a burning hell.

Everything passes.”
Osamu Dazai, No Longer Human
