On stage, we hold hands, and Suave holds the award. Suave decides immediately he's gonna be the one to keep it. After dinner, there's a reception. There's lots of very polite mingling happening over wine. Pretty boring, to be honest. So we sneak off outside for some fun of our own. Right on the Columbia steps, we sip on our drinks. Maybe even a little joint gets sparked.

I grew up around a lot of people that were affected by the carceral system. And, you know, one of the first memories I have is of my dad being accused of a crime.
