All Boys Aren't Blue by George M. Johnson
4.0
dark emotional hopeful inspiring medium-paced

Powerful memoir that at the same time as being educational is inspiring and assessable. Johnson leaves his heart on the page and writes about what it is like wearing a black and queer and trying to find us identity and his community. This is a collection of essays about his life about the hard times that he went through and the good. I like that Johnson came at this from an angle of finding black and queer joy and how important that is. 
A TON OF CONTENT WARNINGS 

Such an important read for literally anyone, no matter your age, sexuality, gender, race, nationality, religion, I could go on. It’s heartbreaking at points, and it’s heartwarming at points. George M. Johnson’s life story so far is one that we can all learn something from.
