“To know the past is to know the present. To know the present it to know yourself.”

“We can't attack a thing we don't know. That's dangerous. And...foolish. It would be like trying to chop down a tree from the top of it. If we understand how the tree works, how the trunk and roots are where the power lies, and how gravity is on our side, we can attack it, each of us with small axes, and change the face of the the forest.”
― Jason Reynolds, Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You

“Nothings lasts forever. Not a song, not happiness, not misery! Mere survival is no safer than living for hopes and dreams. At the end, there will always be the end! So why not dream? why not hope? Why not live life with wild faith and abandon? Why not take the risk? Otherwise all these moment: small or significant, heaven on earth, would be lost to fear”
― Penny Reid, Beard Necessities

“Men talk of the Negro problem. There is no Negro problem,” Douglass declared in 1894, as the shadow of Jim Crow fell across the nation. “The problem is whether the American people have honesty enough, loyalty enough, honor enough, patriotism enough to live up to their Constitution.”
― Ibram X. Kendi, Four Hundred Souls: A Community History of African America, 1619-2019

“Just that, two people, witnessing or experiencing the same event, can have two entirely different interpretations of the truth. To one person, the knot was a heart, and removing it devastated the stone such that it succumbed to the artist’s vision. To another, the knot was an obstruction to the stone, preventing it from being what or who it was meant to be.”
― Penny Reid, Beard Necessities
