“In the midst of the looming threat that covered and shook our being, Safiya’s plea continued with a wrath pulled at my shoulders, her eyes brimming with tears. But I, unmoved, recognized this choice before me. It could have been bullets that awaited me, and yes, it could mean the end of my story. Yet, to trade my life for the silence and give up this music? It was a trade I refused to make.”
