TRIGGER WARNING: EXTREME RACISM, TRAUMATIC STORYTELLING, SA, SYSTEMATIC ABUSE, LGBT TRAUMA
I can’t really understand why someone would sit and write a book like this. To sit and visualize and materialize such a gross story about black plight… To enliven such horrors, the worst fears.. I don’t understand, because if you thought it was power, it isn’t. It’s a stain and a reminder. It’s a limiter, a dream destroyer. You could’ve wrote a story that empowered black kids and adults alike, but you chose to write the same tired story. An actual nightmare of a book.
