Kindle Notes & Highlights
A person moved through the world with no knowledge and no assurances, only hope and faith to guide them through the belief they were making the right decisions.
They were invisible men. Numbers and not names. They had lost the privilege of being seen, existing on the periphery from the rest of the world, lost and forgotten.
what Mira learned that day was how easy it was to let someone convince you of their truth instead of believing in your own.
She felt shame for participating, for coming and being complicit. She felt shame for the circumstances that had led to a place like this existing. Shame for the realization that even after all these years of progress, this was where we’d come, to this corrupted version of the past we all thought we’d left behind.
memory can shift in its recalling, making the past become not what one remembers but what one believes.
