Brothers and sisters, our democracy has been hijacked. brothers and sisters, all electoral freedoms in this country are over so long as it's controlled by corporations. brothers and sisters, we are not going to allow these streets to be taken over by the democrats or the republicans. because it's all of us who have built this city, and we can tear it down unless they give us what we need.
Country Brother Taken
Grandmother pointed out my brother perry, my sister sarah, and my sister eliza, who stood in the group. i had never seen my brother nor my sisters before; and, though i had sometimes heard of them, and felt a curious interest in them, i really did not understand what they were to me, or i to them. we were brothers and sisters, but what of that? why should they be attached to me, or i to them? brothers and sisters were by blood; but slavery had made us strangers. i heard the words brother and sisters, and knew they must mean something; but slavery had robbed these terms of their true meaning.
Brother Mean Grandmother
Your eyes are as a flame, but our brothers have neither hope nor fire. your mouth is cut of granite, but our brothers are soft and humble. your head is high, but our brothers cringe. you walk, but our brothers crawl. we wish to be damned with you, rather than blessed with all our brothers. do as you please with us, but do not send us away from you.
Brother Blessed Humble
[my mother] was the oldest of two sisters and two brothers, and she grew up with her brothers, who were about her age. she grew up, to the age of ten, like a wild colt, and then all of a sudden that was over. they had forced on her her 'woman's destiny' by saying, 'this isn't done, this isn't good, this isn't worthy of a lady.'
Mother Brother Destiny
In my culture, my mother's sisters are also my mother. and my father's sisters are my mother's, too. so i have many mothers. my mom has a fierce love for her children. and she's known to say things like if you die i'll kill you.
