Words Live

I click over for just a moment to learn more about Anzaldua. She just died last year, and I didn't know she was alive until yesterday. But her voice sends me raging. She is so alive in me. She is alive write now. This is the power of words. This is why we must not give up writing.

I have to write because if I don't write what I see then no one else will. I have nothing to lose by writing what I see. This is why people of color must write because we can because we have much less to lose.
