“One can seldom look at terrain and think of it, "This is France," for instance, but in looking at the landscape south of Nogales I had the feeling unmistakably. The land itself was Mexican. It was dry, sandy, rocky, hot, and heavy with many kinds of desert plants. It had repose, dignity, and a sense of the fierceness of survival--not just human survival, but all survival, animal, insect, bird, and plant. And then, when the people of Mexico appeared beyond the train windows, this isolation, struggle, and heroism was clearly marked in their faces.”

“Women are described as the “emotional” gender, but I’ve found that women, Black women in particular, are very skilled at bearing feelings and suffering in silence. Black women have been doing it since we arrived on the shores in 1619. We swallow the pain of racism. We swallow the micro aggressions we experience at the office. We swallow the indignity that we feel when white women touch our hair. We swallow the fear and anxiety that comes with being wives, daughter,s and mothers to Black men and boys.”
