Black Brotherly Love

"I think it is absolutely necessary that black men regroup as black men; until they can talk to each other, cry with each other, hug and kiss each other, they will never know how to do those things with me. I know whole black men exist, and I want to see and enjoy them."--Alice Walker, "What That Day Was Like for Me: The Million Man March October 16, 1995," from her book, Anything We Love Can Be Saved: A Writer's Activism (Random House, 1997).
