Pride (2018)

Pride and Prejudice gets remixed in this smart, funny, gorgeous retelling of the classic, starring all characters of color, from Ibi Zoboi, National Book Award finalist and author of American Street.

Zuri Benitez has pride. Brooklyn pride, family pride, and pride in her Afro-Latino roots. But pride might not be enough to save her rapidly gentrifying neighborhood from becoming unrecognizable.

When the wealthy Darcy family moves in across the street, Zuri wants nothing to do with their two teenage sons, even as her older sister, Janae, starts to fall for the charming Ainsley. She especially can’t stand the judgmental and arrogant Darius. Yet as Zuri and Darius are forced to find common ground, their initial dislike shifts into an unexpected understanding.

But with four wild sisters pulling her in different directions, cute boy Warren vying for her attention, and college applications hovering on the horizon, Zuri fights to find her place in Bushwick’s changing landscape, or lose it all.

In a timely update of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, critically acclaimed author Ibi Zoboi skillfully balances cultural identity, class, and gentrification against the heady magic of first love in her vibrant reimagining of this beloved classic.

I know I haven’t been around as much, that’s because this site is a lot, and there’s just a lot. At the same time I think it’s very important to bring as much light to my friend’s situation.

Lynn is a transwoman who is newly out, and has just moved away from a very conservative area. She and her partner are trying to get into their first long term home together. They aren’t trying to raise much money, just $1,000. That would see them into the new place, pay car insurance, and help them either get a cheap bed, or bring their bed and belongings over from their family home. Unfortunately, as is the case with many queer and trans persons, their family will not be supportive of them once they come out to them. This complicates matters.

The GoFundMe Lynn set up clearly outlines what they would be using the money form, I’ll include that here:

* $300 – this will let us cover February rent. We’re moving into the new place February 10, but we have to pay pro-rated rent to stay those extra 10 days at our old (current) place, and we don’t quite have enough to cover both.
* $450 – this will cover the above, plus our first car insurance payment on the car. My parents – the ones I expect to disown me once I come out to them – want me on my own car insurance before they sign over the title to the car. We need to get this done ASAP, but as important as a car is, we haven’t been able to line it up since we’re so worried about rent.
* $600 – this will cover the above, plus HRT and my therapy for a month. We’re currently paying full price for medications (roughly $110) plus therapy ($10 a session).
* $750 – This will cover basic living comforts – blankets, and maybe a cheap mattress. While our new place is furnished in the common areas, we don’t have bedroom furniture with us right now.
* $1000 – We both have a bunch of stuff at both of our parents’ places – including a full bed, a bunch of clothes, and other supplies. This would allow us the money for a Uhaul + gas to go get those items.
Thank you so much for considering our campaign. We don’t want your generosity to go unnoticed – so we’ll have some reward tiers. 

Lynn’s partner crochets beautifully, if you donate and would like a thank you please drop them a line. Once they’re settled she’ll gladly make you a gift. 
$1+: a personalized thank you note sent directly to your email!
$25+: a small crocheted gift (think a dishcloth, coaster, crocheted flower, etc)
$50+: a medium-sized crocheted gift (think a hat, or ear-warmers, or something else of that tier)
$100+: a crocheted gift of your choice! (a blanket, hat, scarf, jacket, etc)

Hey friends, Nausi back here to say, these ladies need to move by the 10th of Feb. That means they need the money before then. Donations have stopped. Can we share this around? Can we get the word out? I know there are people out that who can and want to help, we just have to have them see it!

Also for peeps who don’t follow me on Ao3 but who like my writing, I’ve got a new thing up. I’m trying to do the monthly challenge from the Xplain Discord. It’s called New Beginnings, and it’s focused on X-factor, and feelings.
