Till meditation master all its parts,

Until that glance run in the world’s despite
To where the damned have howled away their hearts,
And where the blessed dance....”

“... the black girls didn’t get these pills because their black ministers were up on the pulpit saying that birth control pills were black genocide.

And if you can’t control your reproduction, you can’t control your life.”
—Joycelyn Elders (b. 1933)
