- One of my favorite poets of all time.The people do not always say things out loud, Nor write them down on paper. The people often hold Great thoughts in their deepest hearts
- Nabra, Charleena, Philandro - who would have thought in your separate lives that someday you'd all end up in the same prayer for justice.
- Remember, we have never seen the world we strive for. Imagination is essential for liberation. Trust in the belief of the unseen.
- Praying for all those who don’t have access to their fathers today because they are separated by borders, bars, or emotional walls.
- At the NYC kids march for ceasefire now!
- Making a New Years prayer that by this time next year y'all blame capitalism and not 2017 for your woes. Ameen ;) #GetWoke2017
- " We're either invisible or hypervisable, but in the arts we imagine ourselves how we want to be seen...We experience through the arts what equity might feel like." #MOVE2017
- Hearts are fragile... Take care of people's hearts - and the rest will take care of itself.
- This world is organized in such a way that it kills the humanity within us. Our never ending struggle is to fight for resurrection.
- Unfortunately, as a woman, you have to tell the world how to treat you- over and over and over again.
- Privilege is consuming oppression while never experiencing it. Looking at art but not knowing the pain that it took to create it.
- Teach historical truths #Education4Liberation
