 So we're workshopping and my work comes along and the instructor wants to talk about my grammar and correctness and my writing and that I need help. And by the time I had been in that program, I had already finished a master's degree. I had already been teaching as a graduate assistant at the university level. And that was something that was said about me in a room full of my peers. And I was the only person of African-American descent in that room.
