Quotes:
“Don’t ask don’t get…… if you want it, you’ve got to ask for it because no one's going to ask for it for you.”
“Don’t negotiate against yourself.”
“One thing that I think is really important for people to recognize or think about when it comes to race is that it's not neutral….there is no neutral zone. You're either standing in opposition to racism, or you are standing in support of it.”
