Her constant replays and changes in not only words but in pathways to her son’s university physically shows how she has to negotiate what spaces she can safely encompass (Mckittrick, pg. 144).

Which coincidentally, Nina’s safe spaces were at her home with her brother and at the all Black University; all black geographies.
