Eternal Sunshine of a Swank Mind

notime4yourshit:

It was impossible to live a normal, correct life because there were so many people who had no respect for Black people. Who thought that we were a minor race, that we were stupid, we were lazy, we were slovenly, and they reacted to us in that way. It made no difference that these things were not true, necessarily, any more than any other race. But that was the brand that we were carrying, and so we had to suffer the things that people did to us, that were not things that people should do to you. I have not had many trying experiences, cause nobody does that to me. I don’t care what your ethnic background is, or your opinion is, there’s only so much that you can do to me. There’s ever only been so much that you will do and then I have a need to react. - Della Reese

I looooove Della Reese!
