But I don't know how to fight. All I know how to do is stay... - Alice Walker

"The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any."

"No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow."

"I made my first white women friends in college; they loved me and were loyal to our friendship, but I understood, as they did, that they were white women and that whiteness mattered."

"No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow."

"If you're silent for a long time, people just arrive in your mind."
