Message To My Sisters

(Trice Edney Wire) – Nobody knows better than Black women the challenges Black women and men still face.

Black women have always stepped up to the plate to defend and show our love for Black men—even when some of their historical behavior hurt us.

In the National Congress of Black Women, on every program where we honor women for their work, we honor Black men.

We honor Black men who respect and appreciate Black women for our competence.

I understand Black men who’re uncertain about what to do when it comes to working with women because of this new day where accusations spring into action 30 or 40 years after someone allegedly touched them.
