Thinking about the first time I read this book and how it helped me give shape to my feelings at the time...

“That's the problem. We let people say stuff, and they say it so much that it becomes okay to them & normal for us. What's the point of having a voice if you're gonna be silent in those moments you shouldn't be?”
―Angie Thomas, The Hate U Give
