I'm not told what to say by any Republicans and I've never done a personal appearance topless.

I'm not a 'strong warrior queen' like people think. I spend most of my day cooking and doing things with my sons.

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

I'm not talking about my children's father'he's a wonderful black man, the hero of my life, and he's never disrespected or betrayed me. But I'm talking about what I see in the streets and in the media, this naked hatred that black men have towards the authentic black woman'which is really an indication of black men's hatred for blackness itself.

I value men and I don't necessarily want to adopt the man's role, but I do want to see women's humanity honored and respected.

I appear topless as a way of holding on to my Nilotic culture, and I also do it to taunt those Africans who are ashamed of our original cultural beliefs.

In 1998, I was trained by the SPLA [Sudanese People's Liberation Army ] in London how to pretend to be a geologist.
