“… I have been struck by how vehemently some black men oppose black women’s efforts to expand their options to include men of other races. … All this while black women confront the smallest pool of viable partners within their group. Yet some suggest that black women should…wait for a black man, put their life on hold, or put up with relationships problems that would never wish for one’s own daughter. I try to understand this, but frankly it puzzles me. Women may regard black men as brothers, but those brothers don’t love them as sisters.” — R. R.Banks
