Jenifer Lewis
“I’m just now getting myself together to start living, not just surviving; laughing and not pretending, learning and not running away from my problems. The process is painful.”
Jenifer Lewis, The Mother of Black Hollywood: A Memoir

Joya Goffney
“..."My parents never warned me about the fact that the way I talk adn the way I act might lead people to call me white."
"Yeah, I get that," Carter says. "My mom taught me about stereotypes, but she never taught me about the dangers of being the exception to stereotypes."

Jenifer Lewis
“And, I want other women to know they can stand up and MUST stand up to your persecutors. Feel the fear, and do it anyway. We are all as sick as our secrets y'all. Remember that sh*t.”

'This fool said breadcrumbs.' DeVante sounds seriously offended. 'Breadcrumbs.”
Angie Thomas, The Hate U Give

Jenifer Lewis
“Recovery and healing require patience, something that is difficult for many people, and certainly was difficult for someone like me. But, I learned to submit to patience because it was either go step-by-step or die. Having patience means knowing that it is never too late to get well.”
Jenifer Lewis, The Mother of Black Hollywood: A Memoir
