![Fantastic read from the summer.
Posting just now because LIFE.
Anything by James McBride is worth reading.
Favorite character line:
"Every once in a while there's a glimmer of hope.
Just a blip on the horizon...something that said,
'Guess what, you so-and-so, I am God's child.

You're still here.

and we belong?
What will we do today
to ensure the belonging of others
who don't share our privileges?
