“Read everything you can push into your skull. Read your mother’s diary. Read Assata. Read everything Gloria Steinem and bell hooks write. Read all of the poems your friends leave in your locker.

― Gabby Rivera, Juliet Takes a Breath

“Whatever pronouns a person chooses, if they choose any at all, are their right. Not a fucking preference,”
