That BLACKNESS,,,,,Dr. Nina Simone,,,video (1740 hits)
That BLACKNESS ... in Nina's own words.
In delivering Nina Simone's story, we should NOT whitewash away that which compelled her.
Dr. Nina Simone, our High Priestess, deserves the integrity of TRUTH, not the disgrace of Hollywood fictionalization.
The impact of the systemic oppression has many faces and that many more expressions of the the results of that oppression. Certainly those in Turkey, and elsewhere in the world can recognize that. Whenever we love ourselves, and speak the truth of our circumstances and experiences....why is it that people are so threatened? Do we not have the same right to feel and think and see the beauty within our own selves--as do the rest of peoples all over the world? Long way to go---even globally. Please share!
