Our old people, our parents always whispered in our young ears: "It is never a question of if, but when will whites betray you!" - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 12/02/18
Beautiful and compelling white women, like Mona Wales, have tempted and taken many sons from Black mothers. The white led to red blood on green grass growing from brown earth. - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 12/02/18
