“The best support Western feminists could give their global sisters (she said), was to listen first and speak later, following the lead of and partnering with local feminists, giving economic and other support from a position of ‘solidarity’ rather than ‘saving”
Sayantani DasGupta

Toni Cade Bambara
“Two hundred pounds of grief and heft if she was one-fifty. Bless her heart, just a babe of the times. Wants to be smiling and feeling good all the time. Smooth sailing as they lower the mama into the ground. Then there’s you. What’s your story?”
Toni Cade Bambara, The Salt Eaters

Krystal Sutherland
“My sisters. My blood. My skin. What a gruesome bond we shared.”
Krystal Sutherland, House of Hollow

Tessa Bailey
“Her sister was a goddess with a pure, romantic spirit, and it was about time people flocked to her.”
Tessa Bailey, It Happened One Summer

Audre Lorde
“There is so much false spirituality around us these days, calling itself goddess-worship or "the way." It is false because too cheaply bought and little understood, but most of all because it does not lend, but rather saps, that energy we need to do our work. So when an example of the real power of healing love comes along such as this one, it is difficult to use the same words to talk about it because so many of our best and most erotic words have been so cheapened.

Perhaps I can say this all more simply; I say the love of women healed me.”
Audre Lorde, The Cancer Journals
