Alice Hoffman
“This was the virtue of the dark: you were who you had always been, only no one could see you.”
Alice Hoffman, The Museum of Extraordinary Things

Ibram X. Kendi
“The opposite of racist isn't 'not racist.' It is 'anti-racist.' What's the difference? One endorses either the idea of a racial hierarchy as a racist, or racial equality as an anti-racist. One either believes problems are rooted in groups of people, as a racist, or locates the roots of problems in power and policies, as an anti-racist. One either allows racial inequities to persevere, as a racist, or confronts racial inequities, as an anti-racist. There is no in-between safe space of 'not racist.”
Ibram X. Kendi, How to Be an Antiracist

Alice Hoffman
“People will disappoint you with their cruelty every time”
Alice Hoffman, The Museum of Extraordinary Things

“It was right and wrong both. Love does as it undoes. It goes after, with equal tenacity, joy and heartbreak.”
Jandy Nelson, I'll Give You the Sun

Ibram X. Kendi
“Time and again, racist ideas have not been cooked up from the boiling pot of ignorance and hate. Time and again, powerful and brilliant men and women have produced racist ideas in order to justify the racist policies of their era, in order to redirect the blame for their era’s racial disparities away from those policies and onto Black people.”
Ibram X. Kendi, Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America
