When I set out to put pen to paper, I had no idea what form it would ultimately take. The rollercoaster of growing up Black and queer in America. Grappling with the loss of my mother. The joys of finding chosen family. Pulse. Purpose. Forgiveness. A Place For Us is about discovering that the space where we most belong is in the bonds we build with each other. I didn’t sit down to write because I have all the answers. I wrote in the hopes that, even if just for a moment in these pages, we can dare to ask questions together. I can’t wait for you to crack it open. - Brandon

“You never forget your first. First kiss. First love. First heartache. They all burrow their way into your subconscious, destined to reshape how you see the world forever.

In this unforgettable coming-of-age memoir and instant Amazon bestseller, Wolf shares his transformative journey from young outsider to galvanizing activist. Marshaling the compassion and strength of a community, Wolf explores how to get through the darkest times with healing, hope, and resistance. ‘With our backs against the wall,’ he writes, ‘we find a way out together.’”
