I feel sad that we have allowed these knee-jerk feminists who want to act like it's a struggle against men...but again that's the least politically developed strand of feminism.

The challenge these days, is to be somewhere, to belong to some particular place, invest oneself in it, draw strength and courage from it, to dwell in a community.

The fact is that it was bourgeois white feminism that I was reacting against when I stood in my first women's studies classes and said, "Black women have always worked."

When we concentrate on photography, we make it possible to see the walls of photographs in black homes as a critical intervention, a disruption of white control over black images.

There will be no mass-based feminist movement as long as feminist ideas are understood only by a well-educated few.

The world demands that you work for it, make families, provide, take no time to listen to your own heart beating.

I'm lucky. I think it's good that I have a body of work that addresses different things in different ways.
