| walking on water Miss Brittany Ferretti (l.) & another model !!!! |
Miss Brittany Ferretti, in as few words as possible allow me to say why this photograph of your climbing a steep mountain struck a cord, and shed a light on some things beneath the surface of American life.
"The heights white women had to climb out of and away from the low estimation and value white men historically placed upon them is a dizzy height above the arena of their plight in Europe. The last part of the 20th century saw the fastest movement away from the clutches of their men's powers over their esteem, and lives.
The Civil Rights movement's momentum fed white women, and the strategies of the Civil Rights movement gave insight to the chink in white men's thinking, and paved a way for white women to effectively fight during negotiations for their freedoms! The troubling thing is the sense of ingratitude. Today's white woman does not know, seems not to know, and others pretend not to know the indebtedness they have to the American Indian women, and the African women they enslaved." - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 12.25.14
