Jean Toomer
“As you know, men are apt to idolize or fear that which they cannot understand, especially if it be a woman.”
Jean Toomer, Cane

Mikki Kendall
“No one can live up to the standards set by racist stereotypes like this that position Black women as so strong they don’t need help, protection, care, or concern. Such stereotypes leave little to no room for real Black women with real problems. In fact, even the most “positive” tropes about women of color are harmful precisely because they dehumanize us and erase the damage that can be done to us by those who might mean well, but whose actions show that they don’t actually respect us or our right to self-determine what happens on our behalf.”
Mikki Kendall, Hood Feminism: Notes from the Women That a Movement Forgot

“No woman has to be respectable to be valuable.”

Michelle Zauner
“Love was an action, an instinct, a response roused by unplanned moments and small gestures, an inconvenience in someone else’s favor.”
Michelle Zauner, Crying in H Mart

Gabby Rivera
“If it’s a phase, so what? If it’s your whole life, who cares? You’re destined to evolve and understand yourself in ways you never imagined before. And you’ve got our blood running through your beautiful veins, so no matter what, you’ve been blessed with the spirit of women who know how to love.”
Gabby Rivera, Juliet Takes a Breath
