Give thanks for the creativity of being alive and ones'
self... – Gregory E. Woods
"I was called an Oreo as a teenager because I read up on, studied, and evaluated the facets of the Civil Rights movement. During those times it was unpopular to be an international traveler, or interested and invested in international affairs. Being bi-lingual, and connecting with one's NDN, or white bloodlines was spit upon. Having a facility to socialize with white folks was shunned, and was often enough of a reason to shuttle many a 'Black' into social isolation. These contradictions are worth a look into primarily to gain insight into the thinking Black American!" - Gregory E. Woods 4.15.13
