“A lot of people get upset when you say ‘shit’ or something like that. But do you realize that almost our entire country sat still while they barbecued people in Los Angeles, firebombed a house, burned the people to death? …and you see, this is part of the pathology of people who are so sensitive to some kinds of stylistic offensiveness, and so callous to real cruelty and brutality.”
Florynce Kennedy

Langston Hughes
“Negroes
Sweet and docile,
Meek, humble, and kind:
Beware the day
They change their minds!

Wind
In the cotton fields,
Gentle breeze:
Beware the hour
It uproots trees!”
Langston Hughes

“You have to speak the future into your words too. Write about your husband and everything you want in him. Don’t leave out ONE detail. Then write about him everyday just like it’s your life. Walk him right on in… Hello.”
Victoria Davis, Unbothered: How To Stay Motivated When Life Is Determined To Stress You Out

Nelson Mandela
“Fools multiply when wise men are silent.”
Nelson Mandela

Ayi Kwei Armah
“She spoke of those needing the white destroyers' shiny things to bring a feeling of worth into their lives, uttered their deep-rooted inferiority of soul, and called them lacking in the essence of humanity: womanhood in women, manhood in men. For which deficiency they must crave things to eke out their beings, things to fill holes in their spirits.”
Ayi Kwei Armah, Two Thousand Seasons
