When you are a mother, you are never really alone in your thoughts. A mother always has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child. ↗

There's always someone asking you to underline one piece of yourself - whether it's Black, woman, mother, dyke, teacher, etc. - because that's the piece that they need to key in to. They want to dismiss everything else. ↗

Everyone has their dates. For me, it's 1991. I can place every memory of my life either before or after this date. It's the year I became an adult. My mother died, and I created my company shortly thereafter. I definitely would not have done it if she hadn't passed away. ↗

My mother should have been Jewish. She could have taught a class on how to induce guilt. ↗
