" Just when we (gay black men) received our first literary voice, it was minimized soon after. I was excited about revisiting the characters from Invisible Life but found I had to share every other chapter with the straight female point of view. Part of me wanted to skip to the gay brother's chapters but I knew I had to read every page. Still, Harris' writing opened the door for other gay black male (and female) authors who were dedicated to tell stories of our diaspora. "
