ETERNAL SPOTLIGHT & FOCUS ON: DUNBAR VILLAGE
On the evening of June 18th 2007 in the public housing complex known as Dunbar Village in West Palm Beach, Florida. A 35 year old single Black woman and mother was repeatedly raped for up to three hours by 10 Black males. In addition, they forced her to perform a sexual act on her 12 year old son. This horrific crime against humanity was what ultimately led me to becoming a blogger and creating a blog of my own. Myself and those who have been following and monitoring this atrocity are working to ensure that there is justice for the victims, increased awareness of violent crimes against Black women, effective laws and enforcement to protect Black women from violence and and to ultimately work to prevent more horrors like Dunbar that are unfortunately becoming all too common.

Nice quote.
Thank you for the compliment. I find it an enjoyable activity in finding and posting these quotes from our powerful ancestors.
I love quotes too. If we don't live them, however, they are only words.
