Anna-Marie McLemore
“Gatsby and I may have been nothing to men like Tom Buchanan, but men like that did not know we were as divine as the heavens. We were boys who had created ourselves. We had formed our own bodies, our own lives, from the ribs of the girls we were once assumed to be.”
Anna-Marie McLemore, Self-Made Boys: A Great Gatsby Remix

Cathy Park Hong
“I have struggled to prove myself into existence.”
Cathy Park Hong, Minor Feelings: An Asian American Reckoning

Agustina Bazterrica
“She had the human look of a domesticated animal.”
Agustina Bazterrica, Tender Is the Flesh

Cathy Park Hong
“But where does the silence that neglects her end, and where does the silence that respects her begin? The problem with silence is that it can’t speak up and say why it’s silent. And so silence collects, becomes amplified, takes on a life outside our intentions, in that silence can get misread as indifference, or avoidance, or even shame, and eventually this silence passes over into forgetting.”
Cathy Park Hong, Minor Feelings: An Asian American Reckoning

Cathy Park Hong
“To recite my poems to an audience is to be slapped awake by my limitations. I confront the infinite chasm between the audience’s conception of Poet and the underwhelming evidence of me as that poet. I just don’t look the part. Asians lack presence. Asians take up apologetic space. We don’t even have enough presence to be considered real minorities. We’re not racial enough to be token. We’re so post-racial we’re silicon.”
Cathy Park Hong, Minor Feelings: An Asian American Reckoning
