Should certainly be required reading, in and out of the classroom.

“The entire narrative of this country argues against the truth of who you are.”

This should be required reading. It’s a bit dense, and, despite being very short, takes some time to read and absorb. The stream of consciousness prose can be a little off putting to some, but if you take the time to move through this slowly it really adds to it. Heavy. Hard-hitting and deeply moving.
