Daughters
DAUGHTERS
When in this world a man comes forward with a thought, a deed, a vision, we ask not how does he look, but what is his message? The world still wants to ask that a woman primarily be pretty.
–W.E.B. DuBois
On this day, I will make a special effort to praise my daughter for her thoughts and actions. And if I have no daughter, I will make a point of complimenting a black female on something of substance she has done.
