Don't Call Us Dead

Begins with a sequence that imagines an afterlife for black men shot by police, a place where suspicion, violence, and grief are forgotten and replaced with safety, love, and longevity they deserved back here on earth. This book also looks at desire, mortality - the dangers experienced in skin and body and blood - and diagnosis of HIV positive.

Incepe cu o secventa care imagineaza o viata de apoi pentru barbatii negri impuscati de politisti, un loc in care suspiciunea, violenta si durerea sunt uitate si inlocuite cu siguranta, dragoste si longevitate pe care le meritau aici pe pamant. Aceasta carte analizeaza, de asemenea, dorinta, mortalitatea - pericolele cu care se confrunta pielea, corpul si sangele - si diagnosticul HIV pozitiv.
