|t The boxes we see.
|t Black girls learn duality early, too early --
|t conflicts inside, conflicts outside --
|t some boxes are chosen for us --
|t being aware of boxes and escaping them are two different things --
|t The ones we don't.
|t When do Black girls lose their childhood? --
|t Where is her safe space? --
|t Where can she be free? --
|t Where does she get to just be? --
|t boxes inside, boxes outside --
|t hypocrisy inside, hypocrisy outside --
|t Everybody wanna be Black until it's time to be Black --
|t And the ones we shed.
|t be gentle on yourself --
|t be gently with yourself --
|t What if we could just be free? --
|t What if we could just be?

|a "Set in New York City in the '90s, Angela Shanté's poems and stories paint a mosaic of childhood that is shaped by the past and reverberates into the present. As Shanté navigates the city through memory, this timeless book illuminates the places where Black girls are nurtured or boxed in, through stories and poems about expectations, exploitation, love, loss, and self-realization. Her poems center on pivotal moments of Black childhood, using footnotes that encourage you to listen to songs, watch movies, and even learn how to play Spades to further contextualize and celebrate Black culture in every aspect of life. But even with Black joy, life ain't no crystal stair. Between fond memories, Shanté also explores the dark corners of childhood by showing us the ways adultification, misogynoir, and sexual assault can impact girlhood. Every piece in this memoir invites you to unpack the past--to find and transcend the expectations and boxes the world puts Black girls in"--
