“So, here you are
too foreign for home
too foreign for here.
Never enough for both.”
Ijeoma Umebinyuo, Questions for Ada

Roxane Gay
“I embrace the label of bad feminist because I am human. I am messy. I’m not trying to be an example. I am not trying to be perfect. I am not trying to say I have all the answers. I am not trying to say I’m right. I am just trying—trying to support what I believe in, trying to do some good in this world, trying to make some noise with my writing while also being myself.”
Roxane Gay, Bad Feminist

“I love the early hours of the day. It’s a nice place to visit but I wouldn’t want to live there.”
James Lileks

Ibram X. Kendi
“It has all allowed Americans who think something is wrong with Black people to believe, somehow, that they are not racists.”
Ibram X. Kendi, Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America

Ibram X. Kendi
“The principal function of racist ideas in American history has been the suppression of resistance to racial discrimination and its resulting racial disparities. The beneficiaries of slavery, segregation, and mass incarceration have produced racist ideas of Black people being best suited for or deserving of the confines of slavery, segregation, or the jail cell. Consumers of these racist ideas have been led to believe there is something wrong with Black people, and not the policies that have enslaved, oppressed, and confined so many Black people.”
Ibram X. Kendi, Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America
