Policy, for the most part, has been made by white people in America, not by people of color. And they have tended to take care of those things that they think are important.

And so we have to band together and keep fighting back. -Maxine Waters

I have a right to my anger, and I don't want anybody telling me I shouldn't be, that it's not nice to be, and that something's wrong with me because I get angry.
