Excerpt from An Angry-Ass Black Woman
We moved around a lot, but 117th Street was our ground zero. We moved to 115th Street, 116th Street, 118th Street, and 119th Street. Once my mom actually moved us to the Bronx. I’ll never forget the address. 525 Rosedale Avenue. It was in an integrated housing project. The Bronx River Projects. First time we’d ever lived around white kids. We weren’t there for long, though.
