And also, none of my questions are the point. This story is a loudly banging exploration of (white) America’s ongoing historic war on Black people, decade after decade, in continuous new (but also old) ways. It’s about a future that is more of the same, or maybe a future where it all gets torn down for something actually free. It’s about the things that Black individuals and communities do to keep moving towards that day. Getting caught up on the lack of explanation around Ella’s powers feels distinctly Not The Point.

Use of slurs is reclaimed. Institutionalization refers to imprisonment/incarceration.memoriast's review
