More From Jasmine Guy

Within the lesbian community i am black, and within the black community i am a lesbian. any attack against black people is a lesbian and gay issue, because i and thousands of other black women are part of the lesbian community. any attack against lesbians and gays is a black issue, because thousands of lesbians and gay men are black. there is no hierarchy of oppression.

We hear in these days a great deal respecting rights--the rights of private judgment, the rights of labor, the rights of property, and the rights of man. rights are grand things, divine things in this world of god's; but the way in which we expound these rights, alas! seems to me to be the very incarnation of selfishness. i can see nothing very noble in a man who is forever going about calling for his own rights. alas! alas! for the man who feels nothing more grand in this wondrous, divine world than his own rights.

I just want to be clear before we decide to do this together: i'm gay. my music is gay. my show is gay. and i love that it's gay. and i love my gay fans, and they're all going to be coming to our show. and it's going to remain gay.

In my real life, both my bosses are gay. on the 'real housewives of atlanta,' andy cohen is gay, everybody at bravo is gay - we call them the gay mafia. over at 'glee' and 'the new normal,' my boss ryan murphy is gay. on the show, my boss, played by andrew reynolds, is gay in real life. i'm surrounded by all my gay bosses.

Someone once asked me why people sing. i answered that they sing for many of the same reasons the birds sing. they sing for a mate, to claim their territory, or simply to give voice to the delight of being alive in the midst of a beautiful day. perhaps more than the birds do, humans hold a grudge. they sing to complain of how grievously they have been wronged, and how to avoid it in the future. they sing to help themselves execute a job of work. they sing so the subsequent generations won’t forget what the current generation endured, or dreamed, or delighted in.

I still hear people say that i should not be talking about the rights of lesbian and gay people and i should stick to the issue of racial justice. but i hasten to remind them that martin luther king jr. said, 'injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.' i appeal to everyone who believes in martin luther king jr.'s dream to make room at the table of brother- and sisterhood for lesbian and gay people.

We are near waking when we dream we are dreaming.

[...] we must start by inspiring our children with a sense of purpose...by nurturing their imagination so that they may dream big and then work hard to reach those dreams. too often, our children spend hours playing playstation without ever finding out how to build playstation. they watch television but never wonder how it's put together. they surf web page after web page on the internet, but are never taught how to design one.

I felt, that night, on that stage, under that skull, incredibly close to everything in the universe, but also extremely alone. i wondered, for the first time in my life, if life was worth all the work it took to live. what exactly made it worth it? what's so horrible about being dead forever, and not feeling anything, and not even dreaming? what's so great about feeling and dreaming?

Educators need to know what happens in the world of the children with whom they work. they need to know the universe of their dreams, the language with which they skillfully defend themselves from the aggressiveness of their world, what they know independently of the school, and how they know it.
