Quotes by Prisca Dorcas Mojica Rodríguez (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“The white people I met were well-meaning, well-read liberal folks who happened to know all the ins and outs of racism and colonialism, but somehow positioned these problems outside of themselves rather than taking ownership of them. They did not understand themselves to be part of the problem, and they did not see themselves as benefitting from these systems of oppression. Many saw themselves as strictly allies.”
Prisca Dorcas Mojica Rodríguez, For Brown Girls with Sharp Edges and Tender Hearts: A Love Letter to Women of Color

“Give your daughters difficult names. Names that command the full use of the tongue. My name makes you want to tell me the truth. My name doesn’t allow me to trust anyone who cannot pronounce it right. —Warsan Shire”
Prisca Dorcas Mojica Rodríguez, For Brown Girls with Sharp Edges and Tender Hearts: A Love Letter to Women of Color

“A non-white girl’s self-love is revolutionary and anyone trying to water it down needs to back right off.”
