Currently reading: The Message by Ta-Nehisi Coates
#Currently reading: The Message by Ta-Nehisi Coates π β Just started the audiobook. So far it’s equal parts autobiography, travelogue, and Black history, as well as a letter to his writing students. I had to stop and write this one down:
βIt is never enough for the reader of your words to be convinced. The goal is to haunt. To have them think about your words before bed, see them manifest in their dreams. Tell their partner about them the next morning. To have them grab people on the street, shake them and say βHave you read this yet?ββ
