When We Were Birds by Ayanna Lloyd Banwo

2 highlights

‘You putting me out, Ma?’ He can’t bear to turn around. He don’t want to see the answer in her eyes. ‘I make you. You is mine. But if you leave this house to go and live in town, you not coming back.’

nadine’s Quotes

“Did all white people secretly have some strange antebellum or colonial fantasy? Was there a part of her that would have gotten off on the idea of being a mistress of a big house? If she were alive back then, would she have gone along with it or would she have been brave enough to resist? Would she have married someone who owned slaves?”
