"What about Black Girls? With German-Turkish boys? What about us? For a long time I didn't even dare to dream certain things because they seemed presumptuous. Dreaming is not about something being realistic. It's about dreaming what you imagine for yourself, for the world, for your environment, for your family. And anyone who has to limit themselves when dreaming is not free or equal.”"
