Yes, I have read what Sojourner Truth said. And yes it makes me cry to read again. Such a strong and brave woman.

Yes we are still coming up and yes we keep getting pushed back. Days I feel it will never end. Yet I really truly believe that we are being heard, softly. I believe that our voices are rising I believe that people are hearing.I believe.

Be Heard
2014 and for all eternity.
