I also need to shout out to the queer community, especially the black queer community. You were hit the hardest with HIV and AIDS, and this community survived. Thank you to the elders and those who continue to keep the memories of those who passed alive. Thank you to everyone who was out on the streets at the height of the AIDS crisis, protesting and demanding. Thank you to groups like ACT UP for fighting, always fighting. I wasn’t even there and I feel so indebted to all of you. Thank you. I’m so glad this community exists and I’m so grateful to be part of it.

Finally, I have to thank you, dear reader, for picking up this book. For making it to the end, even if you skipped. Not every book is for everyone. But thank you for giving me a chance.
