Never again will black ordtak
 Never again will black women be disregarded. We will have our share and parity in American politics. |
Tyra Banks (1973-) |  |
| We've been dedicated to changing the climate of American politics and opening up leadership for women at every level. We've chosen eight credible women who could be president in 2008. |
Bill Maher (1956-) |  |
| In the context of American politics, this is a pretty big deal. It symbolizes the influence and growth of a key voting group -- Hispanic voters -- in Democratic politics, but also in American politics. |
| [The scene in Alabama was the latest evidence of the growing political clout of blacks across the country. The energy that once created protests has been channeled into politics, spurring impressive victories at the polls, a steady surge in black voter registration and serious debate about whether a black should run for President in 1984. Replacing the old guard of civil rights activists, black mayors are emerging as a powerful force in national politics and public policy. Black leaders marvel that for the first time in a decade, there is a vibrant sense of momentum in the black community.] Back in 1970 we used to say that politics was the new cutting edge of the civil rights movement, ... Thirteen years later, we're beginning to really believe it. |
| I know black women in Tennessee who have worked all their lives, from the time they were twelve years old to the day they died. These women don't listen to the women's liberation rhetoric because they know that it's nothing but a bunch of white women who had certain life-styles and who want to change those life-styles. They say things like they don't want men opening doors for them anymore, and they don't want men lighting their cigarettes for them anymore. Big deal. Black women have been opening doors for themselves and lighting their own cigarettes for a couple centuries in this country. Black women don't quibble about things that are not important. |

| Black people have always been disregarded, so that wasn't a surprise. |
| The fact that she is a woman does have a symbolic and motivating effect for other women to get involved in politics. Already it has galvanized women who never thought they would enter politics. |
| Black women . . . work because their husbands can't make enough money at their jobs to keep everything going. . . . They don't go to work to find fulfillment, or adventure, or glamour and romance, like so many white women think they are doing. Black women work out of necessity. |

| Politics is there the way men and women are there, the way the Atlantic Ocean is there. Sometimes I've written about politics specifically, I mean about politics as it's understood on television and in newspapers. |
