“Pierre's madness consisted in not waiting, as he had formerly done, to discover personal attributes which he called "good qualities" in people before loving them: his heart overflowed with love, and by loving without cause he never failed to discover undeniable reasons for loving.”

“Who gets to be free?
Is someone free when they don't have to think about the way people look at them or treat them because of the color of their skin?
Is someone free when they don't have to spend time on this earth with people who have hearts made of hate?
Or is someone only really free when they're no longer a part of this world?”
― Tyler Johnson Was Here

“We know that if we can get the nation to see, say and understand the Black Lives Matter, then every life would stand a chance. Black people are the only humans in this nation ever legally designated, after all, as not human. Which is not to erase any group's harm to ongoing pain in particular the genocide carried out against the Fist Nations peoples. But it is to say that there is something quite basic that has to be addresses in the culture, in the hearts and minds of people who have benefited from, and were raised up on, the notion that Black people are not fully human.”
