Alok Vaid-Menon
“The thing about shame is that it eats at you until it fully consumes you. Then you cannot tell the difference between their shame and your own— between a body and an apology.”
Alok Vaid-Menon, Beyond the Gender Binary

“Being radical is a choice, and it takes work. A person with a marginalized identity can engage in conservative, oppressive political work, and activists, organizers, and intellectuals living under capitalism, colonialism, anti-Black racism, and patriarchy require years of unlearning or decolonization.”
Charlene Carruthers, Unapologetic: A Black, Queer, and Feminist Mandate for Radical Movements

Alok Vaid-Menon
“we have been taught to fear the very things that have the potential to set us free”
Alok Vaid-Menon

Kiese Laymon
“For a few seconds, I remembered that the most abusive parts of our nation obsessively neglect yesterday while peddling in possibility. I remembered that we got here by refusing to honestly remember together. I remember that it was easier to promise than it was to reckon or change.”
Kiese Laymon, Heavy

“And the metaphorical lenses we choose are crucial, having the power to magnify, create better focus, and correct our vision.”
Charlene Carruthers, Unapologetic: A Black, Queer, and Feminist Mandate for Radical Movements
