i need a book about a black boy that isn’t also about police or incarceration. i need a book about a free black boy living his life
maybe he can have a pair of headphones. a backpack. friends and neighbors. maybe he can eat dinner in his house and fall in love
maybe he can be a vigilante antihero or have superpowers. perhaps even a time traveler
maybe he can pick up a quarter on the street that was on heads and say “haha yes!” and then experience actual luck, like maybe he gets a summer job and the experience lasts a lifetime
