You Tread on My Dreams

You Tread on My Dreams

“Allow me to be unambiguous: I am no one’s BIPOC mannequin. I am a person foremost and not a skin color, and I will not be cheapened nor reduced. I am not marginalized, and I need no special treatment. I refuse your categories.”

Timeless reading in a fleeting world.
