“A black woman making art is a disruptive act. Every story that I tell as a woman is a political act, even if I want to tell a 'silly love story.' The fact it exists through my gaze is radical.”
Ava DuVernay

Yvonne Vera
“We walked in wisdom with our shadows, in search of the dead part of ourselves, which would be our shelter.”
Yvonne Vera, Nehanda
