IN NATURAL HAIR are stories

"The conqueror, I say, is always afraid of whom he conquered, and the conquered holds terror of the conqueror within his body, his body of thought and his Being. When the conquered is wed to, or mates with the conqueror the child has the spirit of the conquered and the conqueror. That conflict of emotions and beliefs becomes either angst to the soul or sources of power.”

There is a lot of pain on both sides. Dorothy Height said it all when she said these words at Mrs. King's funeral. "The Black Man needs the White man to help him with his fear and the White Man needs the Black Man to help him with his guilt!" ~ Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 8.20.13
