“Whiteness isn’t antithetical to non-whiteness, it’s contingent on it. Creative writing is ethnic studies, is gender and sexual studies, is political science, is religion, is history, is sociology. The dichotomy is a sham. All art is political art. Everything less is denial, denial being the most political of all.”
Felicia Rose Chavez, The Anti-Racist Writing Workshop: How To Decolonize the Creative Classroom

Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha
“Inclusion without power or leadership is tokenism.”
Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, Care Work: Dreaming Disability Justice

Jennifer Nansubuga Makumbi
“Often, what women do is a reaction. We react like powerless people. Remember kweluma?”
Jennifer Nansubuga Makumbi, The First Woman

“What if you broadened your depth of knowledge so that enactments of whiteness and its grammatical tyranny no longer served as the standard for good writing?”
Felicia Rose Chavez, The Anti-Racist Writing Workshop: How To Decolonize the Creative Classroom

Yaa Gyasi
“But the memory lingered, the lesson I have never quite been able to shake: that I would always have something to prove and that nothing but blazing brilliance would be enough to prove it.”
Yaa Gyasi, Transcendent Kingdom
