Nella Larsen
An American novelist during the Harlem Renaissance period who wrote the two famous novels called Quicksand and Passing.
I learned about her and her novels just a few months ago. I was moved by her stories and her courage to share her struggles and success. Even though it’s been a century ago, there are still mixed raced individuals who don’t know where and how exactly they fit in the society. Reality just hit me when I realised that there’s always going to be conflicts in race, class, sexuality, etc., no matter how long it’s been. It might not ever go away, but we definitely coming a long way.. And today just proves that we are one more step closer to where we wanted to be. ✌🏼✊🏼✊🏽✊🏿🌈
