It's freedom time! Right now! What does it mean to you to be free?
The sistas in the Combahee River Collective said OUR freedom was crucial because:
“If Black women were free, it would mean that everyone else would have to be free since our freedom would necessitate the destruction of all the systems of oppression.”
Huge words! So how do we do freedom? Join the discussion here: http://quirkyblackgirls.ning.
and let us know what you think freedom means.
Maybe freedom is the ability to walk home with peace of mind. Check out QBG Nuala Cabral's inspiring video here:

Maybe freedom is our own QBG created music? Check out QBG Corrine Stevie's new free EP The Other Sistah here: http://www.zshare.net/
and maybe freedom is old...like pathways we make to find each other across generations. Learn about the deep love between Fannie Lou Hamer and June Jordan at the upcoming Eternal Summer of the Black Feminist Mind Session in honor of freedom fighter Fannie Lou's B-day: (more details here)
