“that the re-subordination of those emancipated was only natural considering the power structures in which this freedom was and continues to operate within. Rendering the Black body as a species body, encouraging a Blackness which is defined as abject, threatening, servile, dangerous, dependent, irrational and infectious, finding yourself being constrained in a way you did not ask for, in a way which could not possibly contain all that you are, all that you could be, could want to be.”

“I think my image gets distorted in the public’s mind. They don’t get a clear or full picture of what I’m like, despite the press coverage I mentioned early.

The part that doesn’t get printed is often the part that would make the printed part less sensational by shedding light on the facts.”

“Imagine the hurt of having untruths spread by the press, of having people wonder if you’re telling the truth—defending yourself because someone decided it would make good copy and would force you to deny what they said, thus creating another story. I’ve tried not to answer such ridiculous charges in the past because that dignifies them and the people who make them. Remember, the press is a business: Newspapers and magazines are in business to make money—sometimes at the expense of accuracy, fairness, and even the truth.”
