QUOTATIONS OF "BLACK"

"Whenever I use BLACK it relates to some history of Africans in that particular place. It’s the idea of the color BLACK as a metaphor, or as a representation of African-Americans. It’s the notion of BLACK- BLACKNESS - and all its other meanings in relation to the history of race..."

- Fred Wilson

"Most of my fortitude to continue doing the work comes from the moral outrage I feel about the injustices that Black people endure disproportionately daily."

- N. Abdul-Wakil

"In the end, what matters is not skin shade but pan-African consciousness. Loving your complexion, your nose, lips, hair length and texture, no matter what the politics or trends decide, and simply be. That's the problem with us (African folks). We're still learning how to love ourselves. So used to glorifying others and putting others first..."

NO PLACE TO CALL HOME (Theater Play)
Paul Roberson Theatre
Last Performance: Sat, December 12th, 2009
Fort Greene, Brooklyn, NYC

Hey Black Family,

I came out in the rain and sleet and saw this play on Saturday, December 5th, 2009 in order to go out and support my friend Sidiki Fofana who is one of the actors in the play. The play was a really poignant piece and the behavior and attitudes with the youth of today! The language of the youth wore me out, but it was reality like the kids on the buses and trains or out in the street.

December 12th, 2009 is the last performance so please show your support. Well worth the $20.00 bucks!!

"Five Adolescent boys living in a foster care group Home. Will the threat by the homeowners association to close the home be enough to stem the tide of dysfunctional behavior developing from the youths? You be the judge!!" (STRONG LANGUAGE)
