Nubia learns who she is AFTER she accepts herself and no longer feels afraid to truly let her light shine. Her mother’s protectiveness has hid her from the world and herself. She only knows who she because of what her parents have told her….until now. Hey friends Quisha, Jason and Oscar help to bring out her true self as she has the support she needs to be herself.
The storyline goes fast and I wish there was more time spent covering Quentin’s death, the protests, and her back story ( especially with her mom). It was a quick coming of age story for Nubia. So much information dropped on her in such a short period of time. The author hit on some key topics. I was excited that she provided a space for Oscar to admit he wanted to stand up and say something but couldn’t because he was scared, not wanting to be the only one to stand up s well as caught in his trauma. All real feelings!
