“One day I would read Audre Lorde and recognize that my silence had not saved me. One day I would read Audre Lorde and tears would stream down my face as I recognized the importance of my own anger. One day I would read Audre Lorde and step into myself.”

“I imagine they found me to be quite mean. And I love that for myself.”
Austin Channing Brown, Full of Myself: Black Womanhood and the Journey to Self-possession
