In honor of Women's History Month, we are reminded of a section of a poem by Haki D. Madhubuti titled "Black Women Have Been Our Answers, No Matter The Questions"
the women are colors of earth and ocean
earth as life,
the beginning waters
magnificent energy.
As the women go, so go the people
determining missions
determining possibilities.
Stopping the women stops the future...
