Talib Kweli and Nina Simone - Four Women

Today's been a mad day filled with research, emails and reading. At certain moments I felt like giving up....that maybe I have bitten off more then I can chew and then I heard this track and felt inspired to work harder thinking of the struggles that sisters of colour suffer. That nothing is ever handed to us...to just take the crumbs from the table we must strive harder then others. We must endure pain and suffering to achieve our dreams. I know that it's going to be a struggle for me to complete this project...it will involve a lot of self sacrifice and hard work...but like my beautiful strong sisters before me I will rise.
