Angela Davis (Photo credit: Free Pages) History has proven that no one is going to protect, nurture, or advocate for Black women and girls but us— Not the Democratic Party to which we are more loyal than any other voting bloc.  Not the school systems that suspend Black girls at alarming numbers.  Not white feminists who often forget that we are women too.  Not the patriarchal Black church that prospers on the backs of faithful sisters.  Not the Black community that is still making...

From what I can see, we remain strange fruit because of the narrative America has created in order to identify Black People. It drives every perception of us. Our skin color is the weapon, we are always seen as armed and dangerous.  I’ll never forget the day Walt and I were riding down the highway on the way to a speaking engagement. I remember being hype because I had just published my book. Before we left we'd loaded boxes of them into the back of the suburban. Out of nowhere we heard a...

Give a man a fish People love to say "Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, and he'll eat for a lifetime." What they don't say is "And it would be nice if you gave him a fishing rod." That's the part of the analogy that's missing.

On arriving he invited me in to meet his family. As we walked toward the front door, he paused briefly at a small tree, touching the tips of the branches with both hands.
