Sent to me from a friend. SHARING I just read a quote in Essence Magazine (October 2013) from Viola Davis which summarizes perfectly what I wrote to you in my last e-mails: I have to believe Im using this time to make a mark and to make a difference. Not just for myself but for so many African-American artists and artists of color who need to be able to work and to be able to show that we have narratives that are complicated and are relevant. Its one thing when the world dismisses us. Its another when we do it to ourselves, when we do it to one another. Too often we dont embrace our vulnerability; we dont embrace the beauty in us. We dont.
