“'Alphabet' by the late Danish poet Inger Christensen. It's a book-leng...” — Jenny Zhang Quote

“'Alphabet' by the late Danish poet Inger Christensen. It's a book-length abecedarian poem. It's an activist text but also a portal to wonder.”

“The 'New York Times' is not reviewing books by non-white people.”

“I wish it wasn't so natural for me to dwell on the past.”

“I'm not an activist per se, but I have strong feelings about things. People can jump on celebrities for being ill-informed or naive, but I've got a right to say what I believe.”

“An activist is someone who makes an effort to see problems that are not being addressed and then makes an effort to make their voice heard. Sometimes there are so many things that it's almost impossible to make your voice heard in every area, but you can sure try.”

“This activist loves Oregon more than he loves life.”
