“Do you really think that they don’t hate us if we don’t stick out? They just don’t notice. So we live in fear and they get to be in charge through their obliviousness and we don’t know who might stand up for us. With us. When they notice they hate us, or they don’t hate us, but we know it, know where we stand. And we don’t spend our energy hiding. And when we hide we have a harder time finding each other . . . Any form of survival is an act of rebellion if they don’t want us to survive. It doesn’t matter if it is silence or screaming. That’s the thing; our survival is the rebellion. Our bodies are always on the line”
