Althea's Reviews > Black Boy Out of Time

This was an absolutely phenomenal nonfiction read that I cannot recommend enough, especially for those who read and loved George M. Johnson's All Boys Aren't Blue. Black Boy Out of Time is a heartfelt glance into the authors life growing up queer and Black in a religious household. Ziyad not only shows the reader a deeply personal and raw insight into their life growing up into adulthood, but also illustrates the challenges facing queer people and Black people today, including the introduction of the term 'misafropedia' - the hatred of Black children. This memoir is definitely a must read!
