Quotes:
“We're just human beings and we're doing our best, and if somebody shows you that they're trying, hold them close and hold that space for them.” 
“I do what I do for black women.”
“Whiteness, inherently, is a place of defensiveness. it is never at fault. It's white people never do anything wrong.  White people expect black people, indigenous people and other people, the global majority, to just give them a free pass, to accept the same apology over and over again.
The tears.  the caring, the acting out because you didn't get your way, those are all  characteristics of whiteness because white people can get away with it.  You’re melanated people cannot.” 
“You cannot be an ally in a war that you created.”
“there's no reason why  a black child at five years old can have a conversation about race and a white child can't.”
