Your Black Friend by Ben Passmore

4.5
You know what you're getting into when you read the first epigraph quote is from Fanon
My body was given back to me sprawled out, distorted, recolored, clad in mourning on that white winter day.
Inside Your Black Friend becomes "Your Blk Fren." Passmore has lost his lost his patience, and he's barely getting started. He's counting on white guilt to get his needs met, and maybe transgress when he wants to. And you know what? Fair, because his white friend will do-gooderly sell him out without thinking twice about it--not maliciously. White people don't think about the implications of their actions because they don't have to. This leads to a page of mostly text, voicing what the narrator would say if he weren't concerned doing so would make him appear too angry.
