It is a love letter to blackness, queerness, and all of us who believe that being fully expressed is a form of resistance and self-acceptance is a pathway to liberation. - Torya Beard When I read Fanta's work I'm brought back to a time of discovery. A time of exploration. A common lived experience. A time of firsts. With each poem, I'm made to face uncomfortable truths and examine how those moments shaped who I am. Each piece feels like it was written to make us confront the things we have let fade to back of our memories. This is a collection of reminders and never forgets. Fanta's story deserves to be read. - Shihan Van Clief<br>
