Challenged for: LGBTQIA+ content, claimed to be sexually explicit


George M. Johnson: In a series of personal essays, prominent journalist and LGBTQIA+ activist George M. Johnson

explores his childhood, adolescence, and college years in New Jersey and Virginia. From the memories of getting his

teeth kicked out by bullies at age five, to flea marketing with his loving grandmother, to his first sexual relationships,

this young-adult memoir weaves together the trials and triumphs faced by Black queer boys.
