Black Women

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or women:

    “...black women write differently from white women. This is the most marked difference of all those combinations of black and white, male and female. It’s not so much that women write differently from men, but that black women write differently from white women. Black men don’t write very differently from white men.”
    —Toni Morrison (b. 1931)

    “Just as men must give up economic control when their wives share the responsibility for the family’s financial well-being, women must give up exclusive parental control when their husbands assume more responsibility for child care.”
    —Augustus Y. Napier (20th century)
