McKinley Freeman: Nate

Quotes 

• Angela Vaughn : You sleeping on the floor?

  Nate : Y-Yeah, I know. It's just hard when you've been conditioned like I have. Just deprived of air and space, humanity for so long. I started growing my locks because it felt like it was the only luxury they couldn't take away from me. The only pure freedom I had left.

  Angela Vaughn : So you grew them out of spite.

  Nate : Rebellion. Anger. At myself, really, for just being away from you and Nikki for 17 years. 17 years of new growth to remind me of all the pain and the shame I put y'all through. It hangs to remind me of that.
