Famous quotes containing the words black and/or students:
“I cant really hear the audience applause when Im on stage. Im totally immersed in the piece. But sometimes I get a lot of it and wonder, Now, why did they applaud here? If its a white crowd, they usually applaud because they think its a pretty movement. If its a black crowd, its usually because they identify with the message.”
—Judith Jamison (b. 1944)
“Teaching Black Studies, I find that students are quick to label a black person who has grown up in a predominantly white setting and attended similar schools as not black enough. ...Our concept of black experience has been too narrow and constricting.”
—bell hooks (b. c. 1955)
