“Through the process of specifically writing this memoir, there was so much reckoning that I had to do. It was very difficult. It doesn't erase anything that happened, but I think that it was healthy for me to do it. The teenage self-loathing that I suffered from all of a sudden found itself turned into rapids with my grief after my brother died. I turned it inwards. In the same way that my mom processes her grief and her problems. This project, as a memoir, has helped me funnel it outwards.” ThinkingWayWritingSelfProblemFoundProcessDifficultGriefHappenedBrotherMomHealthyProjectsDiedMy MomMemoirMy BrotherTeenageRapidsEraseLoathingSelf LoathingReckoningBrother DiedMy Brother Died Author:Jesmyn Ward

“[Kurt] Vonnegut once said, if you ever want to know who somebody is... Like you look at Richard Nixon, or Adolf Hitler, or Ralph Nader, or anybody who seems like a difficult person to understand, and is therefore not part of the pattern of human behavior.

“When the cinematography school told me I would have no chance to get a job, I said, "It's irrelevant." My mom was a feminist in the '20s. She taught me to be on my own, to be independent, to do what I wanted to do. I did not believe it would be difficult. It was difficult. In '66, I almost starved for a year and a half, and the only way I did not starve was because I could not find a job in camera, but I found a job in editing.” BelieveSchoolDifficultChanceMomIndependentFeministMy MomIrrelevantCinematography Author:Babette Mangolte
