Quotes:
"The Creator crowned me with melanated glory, and every day I get to live out my beautiful story." -Crowned with Glory, Dorena Williamson“As a parent, you go through that journey of wanting to teach your children that they are beautiful and worthy of honor the way they are, that they don't need to compare themselves to their white counterparts, or of another race, but that their beauty is beautiful.” -Dorena Williamson“We don't need to go backwards, we need to go forward. And we're getting more diverse, we're not getting more homogenous.” -Latasha Morrison“I believe that we are all image bearers of God. And I believe then, that we should foundationally be teaching that to our children.” -Dorena Williamson“And even if you live in a community that is more homogenous, you still can represent the world in your literature. You can bring the world to your kids through literature.” -Latasha Morrison
