Ta-Nehisi Coates
“But all our phrasing—race relations, racial chasm, racial justice, racial profiling, white privilege, even white supremacy—serves to obscure that racism is a visceral experience, that it dislodges brains, blocks airways, rips muscle, extracts organs, cracks bones, breaks teeth. You must never look away from this. You must always remember that the sociology, the history, the economics, the graphs, the charts, the regressions all land, with great violence, upon the body.”
Ta-Nehisi Coates, Between the World and Me

Ta-Nehisi Coates
“I would not have you descend into your own dream. I would have you be a conscious citizen of this terrible and beautiful world.”
Ta-Nehisi Coates, Between the World and Me

Charles Bukowski
“she knew what she wanted and it wasn't / me. / I know more women like that than any / other kind.”
Charles Bukowski, Love Is a Dog from Hell

Tom Robbins
“Brilliantly, ecstatically, irrepressibly. This is the way to burn”
Tom Robbins, Still Life with Woodpecker

Ta-Nehisi Coates
“Every Trump voter is certainly not a white supremacist, just as every white person in the Jim Crow South was not a white supremacist. But every Trump voter felt it was acceptable to hand the fate of the country over to one.”
Ta-Nehisi Coates, We Were Eight Years in Power: An American Tragedy
