"I carry this on my Nook . Another slow read. This is a gift to our collective wellbeing. With wisdom from experience and exercises to help, it moves me past simply reading to slow breathing and attention, rereading some, sitting in meditative quiet some... I may never finish it... and each reading portion is its own gift." — Jan 31, 2023 08:29AM

“As more people of color raise our consciousness and refuse to be pitted against one another, the forces of neo-colonial white supremacist domination must work harder to divide and conquer.”

“Since the notion that we should all forsake attachment to race and/or cultural identity and be “just humans” within the framework of white supremacy has usually meant that subordinate groups must surrender their identities, beliefs, values, and assimilate by adopting the values and beliefs of privileged-class whites, rather than promoting racial harmony this thinking has created a fierce cultural protectionism.”

“Beloved community is formed not by the eradication of difference but by its affirmation, by each of us claiming the identities and cultural legacies that shape who we are and how we live in the world.”
