“Yusef’s journey, like Malcolm X’s, has been one of transformation and resurrection.” Grace Lee Boggs, 2010”

i am a product of the larger narrative of oppression of Black Bodies.
i am more than a story.
i grew through Black pain but matured through Black love.
i am the aspirations of my grandparents.
i am the heart of my mother.
i am the determination of my father.
i am the joy of my sons.
i am the pride of my neighborhood.
i am the dreams of my dead homies.
i am the hope of the incarcerated, fighting for liberation and dignity.
