It's interesting how so many have spoken out 2 besmirch the very notion of a Black Woman being nominated 2 The Supreme Court. Suddenly, THIS PICK is an 'Affirmative Action' Candidate. Justice Sonia Sotomayor wasn't besmirched, & neither were the White Women selected 2 serve. In fact, White Women have been The Biggest Recipients of Affirmative Action, but the narrative is how Blackfolk R getting something We don't deserve.

'Professor Black Truth' already pointed out how ALL of these 'Candidates' have flaws. None represent The Legacy of Thurgood Marshall, so R We getting excited about yet another 'First Face'? Kentanji Brown Jackson served under Justice Breyer, but I have 2 agree w/ Chris Christie, that Joe Biden may choose J. Michelle Childs 2 keep Jim Clyburn loyal (& maybe help him during Primary Season). Black America doesn't need another Clarence Thomas in The Supreme Court; We NEED an advocate.

Her life was incredible and inspirational to say the least. By all accounts she was born a slave in Georgia, but in her early years lived in Massachusetts and worked as servant. She married a free black man and worked on the Underground Railroad. After husband's death she married again and moved to San Francisco during the Gold Rush and invested her money wisely. She opened reasturants, bought and invested in buildings, housed some of the most important, people (black and white) in her establishments, lived in Canada for awhile to work on planning a revolt against slavery that would set slaves free, moved back to San Francisco to continue her work in activism, investing and freedom for her people. Upon her death, the media had slandered her name. However, Mary Ellen Pleasants remained strong and resilient!!! Her story is one worth researching and learning more about.

"We give ourselves permission to believe in the power of our demands and the strength of our convictions to take back what is already ours. We cannot allow an isolationist impulse to dictate our movement strategy given the political urgency of now.  As various communities of Black women, we have always faced innumerable personal, and unspeakable brutalities. We cannot allow the travesties that have affirmed disregard for our existence to continue to flourish while we wither away with resentment and stew in our own rage. Continue to act to eradicate oppression whenever it shows up. This has been our inherited tradition for centuries, practiced in diverse ways around the world, in in both peaceful protest and in righteous anger in the face of indignities and in the face of dehumanization.

As the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) is set to expire at midnight, September 30, 2018 when we rally in New York City and march on the National Mall in Washington, DC September 29, 2018, our mass mobilization is a reminder that what matters to Black women must be spoken and prioritized. Rally with your feet, rally with your voice, rally with your heart, rally with your conscience and your vote. This year marks one hundred years since the lynching death of Mary Turner in 1918, and we invoke anti-lynching crusader Ida B. Wells and say #BlackWomenRise. Rise with #OneVote and demand an end to the killing of our sisters by state agents and institutions of the state. With #OneVote demand an end to the kidnappings and exploitation of our girls who continue to go missing. Rise with #OneVote to end sexualized violence, discrimination in economic and the political fields. On September 29 rise with Black women by marching with us in D.C. and rally with us in NY on September 30, 2018."

Repost from @heathgallery - RISE is a multigenerational exhibition of Black women’s art opening Mother’s Day weekend. The 12 selected artists range in age from late 20’s to over 70 years old. More than half of the exhibiting artists are mothers or caretakers of their mothers. They represent both established and emerging artists whose work can be found in museums, publications and private collections. These artists collectively represent Black women's ability to rise past obstacles, tend to community and feed their own souls. This exhibit is a love letter to these artists and the larger community of Black women who create. Themes reflected in the 26 works include spirtituality, the search for meaning and beauty, intersections, identity, the environment, suffering and healing. ⁣

The 12 featured artists are Grace Williams, Sade Boyewa El, Laura Gadson, Patricia Stuart, Heather Williams, Wilhemina Grant-Cooper, Gabrielle Baker, Shenna Vaughn, Melissa Sutherland, Alicia Jones, Stephanie Hughes, and Eunice Kindred.⁣

The artists work in a variety of styles and media including: #oil, #acrylic, #mixedmedia, #fineartphotography, #collage, #assemblage, #installation and #fabricquilts.⁣

Heath Gallery is pleased to present these artists

Mary Church Terrell was an ambitious an amazing woman. She was the daughter of former slaves, whose father, after slavery, became one of the first black millionaires in the United States. Both of her parents owned successful business.

Mary would grow up and obtain a bachelor's and master's degree from Oberlin College. She met her husband, Robert Hebertin Terrell in 1888. Her husband was a lawyer and was the first black municipal court judge in the nation's capital.

Mary was a professor at Wilberforce University and the first black woman appointed to the District of Columbia Board of Education. In 1896 she became the president of the National Association of Colored Women.

She would later be one of the founding members of the NAACP, write an autobiography and would continue to speak and lecturer on the rights of black women.
