“We can learn to use the fire of our minds to good purpose.”
James Ishmael Ford, Zen Master Who?: A Guide to the People and Stories of Zen

“On the surface, I was bullied for being effeminate, articulate, overweight, well-read, interested in recreations and matters non-traditional for black boys or even black people--essentially for being myself. To be hounded for merely existing in one's own skin is not unique to blacks, but at least during Jim Crow we could turn to one another. In modern-day terrorism, we turn on one another, with limited options for sanctuary.”
L. Michael Gipson, For Colored Boys Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow is Still Not Enough: Coming of Age, Coming Out, and Coming Home

Jenifer Lewis
“I smiled a bit, thinking how meaningless rejection becomes as the years roll by.”
Jenifer Lewis, The Mother of Black Hollywood: A Memoir
