When we no longer know quite what we spend so much time fighting for, when reality and everyday worries overwhelm us and we wonder how much longer we’re going to be able to carry on.

― Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah, Friday Black: NYT Bestselling Literary Satire – Urgent African American Stories About Systemic Racism

“All experience adds up to a life lived as only you could. I feel sure the day will come when you can say: this is my life.”
