challenging dark emotional informative reflective sad slow-paced

“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.
