Here's Kerry reading her letter.

Dear me, you were never the problem.

This is the letter to the girl I used to be.

Dear younger Kerry, I know it's hard moving through the world in a body people think they understand before they know you.

To enter a classroom and feel your body arrive before you do.

Before you even speak, they have already decided you are slower, less capable, less desirable.

And slowly you start to see yourself through their eyes.

And so can you explain to people listening who haven't heard of Harlow what it was and what you did?

And slowly you start to see yourself through their eyes.

So you get louder, funnier.

And so can you explain to people listening who haven't heard of Harlow what it was and what you did?
