Multiculturalism isn't about culture, it's about power.

White people use their literature to maintain culture. That's why you find references to Milton and Spencer and Shakespeare and Dostoyevsky in contemporary novels.

I started writing because there's an absence of things I was familiar with or that I dreamed about. One of my senses of anger is related to this vacancy - a yearning I had as a teenager... and when I get ready to write, I think I'm trying to fill that.

I'm a firm believer that language and how we use language determines how we act, and how we act then determines our lives and other people's lives.

Where there is a woman there is magic.

Multiculturalism is a white people joke.
