WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH QUOTE 14 OF 15 Thursday, March 30, 2023

"We have to teach, tell, and show Black girls that they are beautiful ... that there is no standard of beauty, only defining it. And we, Black girls, define beauty, too. Our hair, shade, shape, and features are beautiful. We set trends, and the world follows." - D.B. Mays, Black Lives, Lines, and Lyrics

WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH QUOTE 11 OF 12 Friday, March 24, 2023

"Black women have long been the backbone of our political progressive past: the strategists and protesters and organizers and volunteers, the women who've gotten out the vote and licked the envelopes, pioneered the thinking that led to the revolutions. Yet they've been only barely represented in leadership of the political parties they've bolstered, their policy priorities have often gone unaddressed and unrecognized; their participation has long been taken for granted. And when white women have caught up to where black women have been for a long time, the work of the black women has often been appropriated, ignored, and uncredited by those with greater economic, cultural, and racial advantage." - Rebecca Traister, Good and Mad: The Revolutionary Power of Women's Anger

WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH QUOTE 10 OF 12 Friday, March 24, 2023

"Black females, for the most part, know by the time they are ten years old that the world is not much concerned with the quality of their lives or even their lives at all. When politicians and salespeople start being kind to black women, seeking them out, offering them largesse, the women accept the soft voices, the simpering statements, the often idle promises, because those are likely to be the only flattering behavior directed to them that day. Behind the women's eyes, however, there is a wisdom that does not pretend to be unaware; nor does it permit gullibility." - Maya Angelou, A Song Flung Up To Heaven

WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH QUOTE 9 OF 9 Friday, March 17, 2023

"Because, you know, a colored woman with class is still an exceptional creature; and a colored woman with class, style, poetry, taste, elegance, repartee, and haute cuisine is an almost nonexistent species." - Kathleen Collins, Whatever Happened to Interracial Love?

WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH QUOTE 6 OF 6 Wednesday, March 8, 2023

"Answer me. Where does a Black woman go when she is me, trailed by myths that this country has invented about her? Where to go to, when all of you have been there already, and claimed the turf as your own and you watch the rest of us shipwrecked by circumstance and color, looking. Waiting. Needing." - Sonia Sanchez, Shake Loose My Skin: New and Selected Poems

WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH QUOTE 2 OF 3 Wednesday, March 1, 2023

"While we are all forced to participate in the games of office politics; it is a very defeatist position for a Black woman. Many would argue that White men in America write the rules, manage the courses, and call all the plays. They are trusted to lead organizations and are in key positions to make positive change. I believe that at this moment in time, the onus shouldn't be placed on the underdogs to pull themselves up. The onus is on White men in power to create work environments that are both inclusive and sustainable for marginalized people." - Talisa Lavarry, Confessions From Your Token Black Colleague: True Stories & Candid Conversations About Equity & Inclusion In The Workplace

WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH QUOTE 1 OF 3 Wednesday, March 1, 2023

"When feminist rhetoric is rooted in biases like racism, ableism, transmisogyny, anti-Semitism, and Islamophobia, it automatically works against marginalized women and against any concept of solidarity. It's not enough to know that other women with different experiences exist; you must also understand that they have their own feminism formed by that experience. Whether it's an argument that women who wear the hijab must be 'saved' from it, or reproductive-justice arguments that paint having a disabled baby as the worst possible outcome, the reality is that feminism can be marginalizing. If a liberation movement's own representatives are engaging with each other oppressively, then what progress can the movement make without fixing that internal problem?" - Mikki Kendall, Hood Feminism: Notes from the Women That a Movement Forgot

WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH QUOTE 15

“Empowerment looks like cultivating the wisdom to make the best choices we can out of what are customarily a piss-poor set of options. Power looks like the ability to create better options. The powerlessness and capriciousness of being repeatedly jammed up at the personal and political crossroads of one’s intersection while a watching world pretends not to see there, needing help, is how it feels to be a Black woman on an ordinary day.” – Brittney Cooper, Eloquent Rage: A Black Feminist Discovers Her Superpower

WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH QUOTE 12

Wednesday, March 20, 2024

“I am a Black woman, therefore, I am destined to protect myself. Our men have wandered too far to beckon. They are lost guardians. Thus, you learn early on how to wield your sword & hoist your shield — how to stand shoulder to shoulder with your sister in battle and wail a cry that never seems to be loud enough. And I am tired. If only I could rest. To be a Queen with no infantry is a painful sight indeed. They do not yield to my crown. How useless is my throne, if I am to continue to fight alone?” – Bethanee Epifani J. Bryant, Don’t Fall Prey! Dating Tales, Trials, & Triumphs

WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH QUOTE 11

Wednesday, March 20, 2024

“I respect you as so much bigger than my own understanding. And me too. I don’t have to be available to be eligible for breath. I don’t have to be measurable in a market of memes. I don’t have to be visible to be viable on my path. I don’t have to be shy to be sacred about my time. There are only two things I have to do, my mom taught me, and I can do them in the company of my choosing. The company of myself, my living, my dead, my folks, my dreams. 1. Stay Black. 2. Breathe.” – Alexis Pauline Gumbs, Undrowned: Black Feminist Lessons from Marine Mammals

“Mainstream, white-centered feminism hasn’t just failed women of color, it has failed white women. It’s not making them any safer, any more powerful, or even any wiser.” – Mikki Kendall, Hood Feminism: Notes from the Women That a Movement Forgot
