Whatever is unnamed, undepicted in images, whatever is omitted from biography,
censored in collections of letters, whatever is misnamed as something else,
made difficult-to-come-by, whatever is buried in the memory
by the collapse of meaning under an inadequate or lying language -
this will become, not merely unspoken, but unspeakable.

…nothing less than the most radical imagination will carry us beyond this place…

- Adrienne Rich, On Lies, Secrets, and Silence
