Summary

"Tired of feeling like you don't belong? Join the club. It's called the Section. You'd think a spot to chill, chat, and find community would be much easier to come by for nerdy, queer punks. But when four longtime, bookish BFFs--Lika, Amor, Lala, and Tony--can't find what they need, they take matters into their own hands and create a space where they can be a hundred percent who they are: Black, queer, and weird. The group puts a call out for all awkward Black folks to come on down to the community center to connect. But low attendance and IRL run-ins with trolls of all kinds only rock everybody with anxiety. As our protagonists start to question the merits of their vision, a lifetime of insecurities--about not being good enough or Black enough--bubbles to the surface. Will they find a way to turn it around in time for their radical brainchild, the Blackward Zine Fest?"--Amazon
