Book cover for Wrong Place Wrong Time
How sinister it is to relive your life backward. To see things you hadn’t at the time. To realize the horrible significance of events you had no idea were playing out around you.

Samantha Harvey
“Because who can look at man’s neurotic assault on the planet and find it beautiful? Man’s hubris. A hubris so almighty it’s matched only by his stupidity.”
Samantha Harvey, Orbital

Michael Harriot
“Through a complex combination of whitewashing, guilt, and an intentional recasting of history that absolves them of their hatred, our historical translators have painted a sanitized, impressionist portrait of a struggle for Black liberation that was eventually fulfilled by American’s unwavering commitment to justice and equality. Out of whole cloth, they managed to fabricate a fantastic ahistorical myth that somehow became truth. They remember a socially conservative, respectable campaign of racial reconciliation, not a movement of anti-establishment revolutionaries. And for their sake, the doctrine of nonviolent resistance was eventually reduced to simple ‘nonviolence.’ They never speak of the ‘resisting.”
Michael Harriot, Black AF History: The Un-Whitewashed Story of America

“I love you like all-fire.”
Suzanne Collins, Sunrise on the Reaping

Suzanne Collins
“All propaganda is lies, even when one is telling
the truth. I don’t think this matters so long as
one knows what one is doing, and why.” — George Orwell”
Suzanne Collins, Sunrise on the Reaping

Suzanne Collins
“They will not use my tears for their entertainment.”
Suzanne Collins, Sunrise on the Reaping
