‘Nevertheless, SHE Persisted.’
DAMN RIGHT! OF COURSE!! NOTHING LESS!!!

There are many ways that American culture
tells women to be quiet
—many ways they are reminded
that they would really be SO MUCH MORE pleasing
IF they would just smile a little more,
or talk a little less,
or work a little harder to be
PLIANT
and
AGREEABLE.
X
X
Women are,
in general,
extremely ATTUNED to these messages;
we have,
after all,
heard them
ALL
OUR
LIVES.

There
is a
Native American parable
about a ELDER who says:
“I feel as if I have
two wolves
fighting
in my heart.
X
X
One wolf is the
vengeful, angry one.
The other wolf is the
loving, compassionate one.”
X
X
When asked which wolf
will win the fight in their heart,
the ELDER replies:
“The one I feed.”
