Black Movie by Danez Smith

challenging emotional funny reflective sad fast-paced

5.0

there's this episode of ms. pat's podcast the patdown called 'black game of thrones' and while hers is literal it always brings me back to this book. it's kind of like a boondocks episode. 'lion king in the hood' and the end of the 'dinosaurs in the hood' will always be my favorite parts.

"Besides, the only reason
I want to make this is for that first scene anyway: the little black boy
on the bus with a toy dinosaur, his eyes wide & endless

his dreams possible, pulsing, & right there."
