Sometimes people try to destroy you, precisely because they recognize your power - not because they don't see it, but because they see it and they don't want it to exist.

I get so tired of people acting like, you know, black men and women never help each other, never support each other.

Feminist thinking teaches us all, especially, how to love justice and freedom in ways that foster and affirm life.

Since loving is about knowing, we have more meaningful love relationships when we know each other and it takes time to know each other.

I think we have to choose, what are the issues that really matter? We have to trust that.

To be truly visionary we have to root our imagination in our concrete reality while simultaneously imagining possibilities beyond that reality.

Black males who refuse categorization are rare, for the price of visibility in the contemporary world of white supremacy is that black identity be defined in relation to the stereotype whether by embodying it or seeking to be other than it…Negative stereotypes about the nature of black masculinity continue to overdetermine the identities black males are allowed to fashion for themselves.
