When and where there is repression, what a woman does when she gets dressed in the morning may be considered political. Wearing or not wearing a veil, disobeying laws that prohibit transgender dressing, or wearing a large Afro in an institution that seeks to diminish the formation of racial alliances are all actions that can serve as challenges to domination

If you sincerely want to be successful in life, all you need is one person to believe in you, and that one person should be YOU. As long as you genuinely believe in yourself, you can and will be a success. Your mindset is a powerful force! What you think and how you think will be the ultimate factor of your journey__ end.

Black Girls_ Until you get enough of what you__e going through, no matter what advice a person gives you, you__l continue to go through the same thing. Constant arguing. Constant fighting. Constant lies. Constant disappointments. Constant emotional rollercoaster. Constant heartbreak. Constant headaches. Constant threats. Constantly fighting for his attention and love. Constantly looking through his phone. Constantly sneaking through his personal belongings. Constantly arguing and/or fighting with other women over who__ supposed to be YOUR mate. Secretly checking up on him due to a lack of trust. Listen, NOBODY is worth your inner peace! What I__e listed above is NOT a relationship. It__ a toxic mess. So, what are you going to do?

The voice of a Black woman should always be HERSELF ...No edits - no erasure - no pressure - no expectations - no additions - no intruders

Ii do not walk with alienation everywhere I go in the world. I have been to small taverns in rural Ohio, big city bars, San Francisco bath houses, and in all these have felt welcome and happy. But walking through that sunglassed throng, I felt like a Martian. I didn't hate the feeling - indeed, being a black woman in the academy, it wasn't new to me - but it was interesting. I kept wondering: where is the performance? When will the performance start? Is this the performance - me walking through this space without sunglasses with all these Nordic quasi-hipster white people in multi-colored, motorcycle cop sunglasses?

Most people write me off when they see me.They do not know my story.They say I am just an African.They judge me before they get to know me.What they do not know isThe pride I have in the blood that runs through my veins;The pride I have in my rich culture and the history of my people;The pride I have in my strong family ties and the deep connection to my community;The pride I have in the African music, African art, and African dance;The pride I have in my name and the meaning behind it.Just as my name has meaning, I too will live my life with meaning.So you think I am nothing?Don__ worry about what I am now,For what I will be, I am gradually becoming.I will raise my head high wherever I goBecause of my African pride,And nobody will take that away from me.

Black skin was filled with so many barriers, so many restrictions, so many.

Mogadishu the beautiful - your white-turbaned mosques, baskets of anchovies as bright as mercury, jazz and shuffling feet, bird-boned servant girls with slow smiles, the blind white of your homes against the sapphire blue of the ocean - you are missed, her dreams seem to say.

Most females are dissatisfied with how they look and battle with countless insecurities, not realizing that you look most beautiful when you think you don__. I wish that women and girls all over the world knew just how uniquely beautiful that we ALL are. Loving yourself for who YOU are is empowering! There__ great freedom in being unbothered by other people__ opinion of you.

I am Stephanie Lahart! An intelligent, empowered, and confident Black Queen. Purposely Fearless!

Black Moms create magic, so that makes me magical.

Melanin Fiercely Poppin_ on Purpose.

I__ a Black woman. Empowered, powerful, and greatness.

Some of my Black sistas don__ know any better, so I__ like to give them some enlightening food-for-thought. Many of them are in awe when it comes to Michelle Obama. They admire and celebrate her intelligence and beauty. For many Black women, she__ a positive and powerful role model. Our former First Lady is phenomenal to say the least! She__ a lawyer, writer, and she fearlessly wears many other hats with integrity and grace. But, here__ what I__ like to point out: If you can admire and celebrate her, why can__ you do the same for YOUR family and friends? Why is it that when people that you personally know obtain degrees, start a successful business, buy a home, are financially secure, happily married, etc_ Here you go hatin_ on them. Why can__ you genuinely be happy for them and share in their greatness? I encourage you to celebrate the Black women around you, too!

My BODY isn't flawed, your thinking is. #UniquelyMe

She__ an original! She doesn__ need to compete, copy, or envy other women. The confidence that__ within her won__ allow her to stoop that low. She__ a Queen! And jealousy isn__ something that she cares to entertain. Insecurity isn__ in her DNA. She shines! She succeeds! She__ a quality woman with purpose! She empowers, inspires, motivates, and celebrates other women. But depending on how you feel about yourself, you__l either admire and respect her or hate on her. Listen, it__ okay to acknowledge other Queens! Don__ be an undercover hater. Have self-confidence and allow YOUR light to shine.

I am an educated black woman in a time when educated black people will be called upon to risk everything for the rights of black people everywhere.

We believe in equality for all, and privileges for none. This is a belief that each American regardless of background has equal standing in the public forum, all of us. Because we believe this idea so firmly, we are an inclusive, rather than an exclusive party. Let everybody come.
