The Black woman is the most unprotected, unloved woman on earth...she is the only flower on earth...that grows unwatered.

Men always liked me, because I was very damaged and unpredictable, my children's father claims that I have multiple personalities, but I don't.

My autobiography is one of the truest, most frankly written books ever published in the western hemisphere.

I have much more power and protection than Salman Rushdie, because I'm an American citizen, but yes, I live in terrible fear for my life and for the lives of my children. My whole family has been threatened, my adoptive parents had to sell their house and move out of Washington, D.C. because of death threats caused by my work and activism.

Even though I couldn't speak English, there were many times that my black-American parents could read my mind and I could read theirs.

The Black woman is the most unprotected, unloved woman on earth...she is the only flower on earth...that grows unwatered.

While I love Mohammed and Jesus Christ'I reject all men's religions, not just Islam, but Christianity, Judaism and whatever else the men use for a whip.
