“And yet we have, as a society, somehow convinced ourselves that we should be led by incompetent assholes.”

“Teaching women how to defend themselves against male rapists is not the same as working to change society so that men will not rape.”
― Ain't I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism
― Ain't I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism
“To me feminism is not simply a struggle to end male chauvinism or a movement to ensure that women will have equal rights with men; it is a commitment to eradicating the ideology of domination that permeates Western culture on various levels--sex, race, and class, to name a few--and a commitment to reorganizing U.S. society so that the self-development of people can take precedence over imperialism, economic expansion, and material desires.”

“For how does one overthrow, change or even challenge a system that you have been taught to admire, to love, to believe in?”
― Ain't I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism
― Ain't I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism
“... I choose to re-appropriate the term "feminism", to focus on the fact that to be "feminist" in any authentic sense of the term is to want for all people, female and male, liberation from sexist role patterns, domination, and oppression.”
