Lana’s Quotes

“The rules of the game are different in society for minorities, as we live in the figurative “basement” of this world, the floor beneath the first level. It is a floor where you become acclimated to the struggle to be treated equally in education, employment, housing, and more. It becomes a normal part of your life and your reality. So when times get difficult for a Black person, there is no sensation of “the sky is falling” because the truth is, the sky never got off the ground on our side of town anyway.”
