“how we absorbed and translated history mattered and that it was never objective.”
― Katherine Reay, The London House

“Your name is one of the most important pieces of your identity. It is the thing that you own. It is attached to every piece of work that you put into the world. Your name holds power when you walk into a room. No two people with the same name are the same person. It’s important that, like everything else you grow to love in life, your name is something you appreciate as well.”
― George M. Johnson, All Boys Aren't Blue

“history is no more than a loose collection of stories we were told”
― Mara Williams, The Truth Is in the Detours
