This Year Wear White in Radical Vigil Oct 5 March for Black Women http://p0.vresp.com/oLMjwS

I note that strides that have replaced the tiptoe; I watch the new configurations we have given to personal relationships, wonder what shapes are forged and what merely bent. I think about the sister no ...

Responding to S*xual Assault Survivors: How to do the Work Without Funding http://p0.vresp.com/NvTAts

Black women like Mary Church Terrell and Ida B. Wells made r**e central to the anti-lynching movement.  Combined with lynching, the r**es of Black women persisted unpunished throughout the Jim Crow era when Black women were assaulted to enforce rules of racial and economic hierarchy. 

05/20/2018

We go forward with deep reverence from the site where the marker lives to commemorate the story of Mary Turner’s legacy of resistance.

We are full with humility, inspiration, deep gratitude and reflection for the community we shared with the family of Mary Turner today.

Our work continues, the preservation of Black women’s stories continues, the storm and crusade to end violence against Black women and girls and their unborn children continues.

The photo below was taken at the Webb Miller Community Church where we sat in prayer just before going to the site where Mary Turner was killed.

We remain deeply grounded in the work of truth, justice, healing, and reconciliation.
