“All the time. People called me ‘stuck-up’ and ‘Lite-Brite,’ and a whole bunch of other names. I’ve never told your grandmother, but I was in a couple of fights. ’Course, she loved when people told her I looked white. I hated it ’cause at school it was, ‘Oh, you think you’re cute,’ and ‘You think you’re better than everybody, I’mma beat you up.’ I got all that.”
I like that the author explores the other end of the spectrum
