Michael Eric Dyson Quotes
There are many things that black women can continue to do to help black folk. First, black women have historically been among the most vocal advocates for equality in our community.

Second, when black women are in charge of child-rearing, they must make ever so sure to raise black children who respect both men and women, and who root out the malevolent beliefs about women that shatter our culture.
