Leadership is a choice one makes.

A women's place in history has never been given the attention that it needs to be given, and that's why we have a lot of the misogyny in our society today.

I call myself an addicted organizer.

I think we brought to the world, the United States anyway, the whole idea of boycotting as a nonviolent tactic. I think we showed the world that nonviolence can work to make social change.

Sometimes, we have to promote ourselves. Just go out and be very active about trying to find an opportunity.

The thing about nonviolence is that it spreads. When you get people to participate in nonviolent action - whether it's a fast, a march, a boycott, or a picket line - people hear you, people see you, people are learning from that action.
