of
Black Women Taught Us: An Intimate History of Black Feminism:
"SO good. Picked this up thinking it would help with a grad school paper research. It didn't. But it gave me some ideas for my capstone/dissertation next year! This one's staying on the bookshelf for a long time."

“Racism is rooted in law. It is embedded in every institution in this land. It is all around us all the time and it orders all of society.”
― Black Women Taught Us: An Intimate History of Black Feminism
― Black Women Taught Us: An Intimate History of Black Feminism
“When examined over time, it becomes clear that Black women continue to confront the true nature of this society despite the risks to themselves.”
― Black Women Taught Us: An Intimate History of Black Feminism
― Black Women Taught Us: An Intimate History of Black Feminism
“Freedom is not always about the moments of celebration, the pomp and circumstance, or the big proclamations, declarations, and statements. It doesn’t always come after a war or due to a march, protest, or the violent overthrow of a corrupt political leader. Freedom also rests in the quiet moments when nothing seems to be happening at all. In the waiting and strategizing. Freedom comes in the revolutionary choice to be unmoved by the State, to remain still, grounded, and planted in the truth that we each deserve to be fully recognized and respected in our bodies, beliefs, and objectives. Freedom comes when we are not even doing anything but continuing to live despite a world that does not want us to exist.”

“we cannot divorce capitalism from race, nor can we divorce our struggle against racism from our struggle against capitalism. Every financial crisis is a racial crisis as well.”
― Black Women Taught Us: An Intimate History of Black Feminism
― Black Women Taught Us: An Intimate History of Black Feminism
“Black women taught us how to listen and work. It’s time we do both.”

“Racism is rooted in law. It is embedded in every institution in this land. It is all around us all the time and it orders all of society.”
― Black Women Taught Us: An Intimate History of Black Feminism
― Black Women Taught Us: An Intimate History of Black Feminism
“Black women take on immense risk when we choose to speak, write, and champion the truth despite a societal commitment to misremembering, watering down, and whitewashing history.”
― Black Women Taught Us: An Intimate History of Black Feminism
― Black Women Taught Us: An Intimate History of Black Feminism
“The fact of the matter is: There is enough room for all of us. There is enough freedom for all of us. There is enough justice and enough love for all of us. And, when we begin to forget that, we start to reinscribe the same systems that we seek to destroy.”
