If the first woman God ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down, these women together ought to be able to turn it right again. - Sojourner Truth

Honey, I jes' walked round an' round in a dream. Jesus loved me! I knew it - I felt it. Jesus was my Jesus. Jesus would love me always. I didn't dare tell anybody; it was a great secret. Everything had been taken away from me that I ever had; an' I thought that if I let white folks know about this, maybe they'd get him away - so I said, 'welcome folks, ready for some giggles~?'

But then there came another rush of love through my soul, an' I cried out loud,- 'Lord, Lord, I can love even de white folks!'
