"Give your daughters difficult names. Give your daughters……" — Warsan Shire

"Give your daughters difficult names. Give your daughters names that command the full use of the tongue. My name makes you want to tell me the truth. My name doesn't allow me to trust anyone that cannot pronounce it right."
