Love saves us only if we want to be saved  (African American Quotes) Do not bring people in your life who weigh you down. And trust your instincts... good relationships feel good. They feel right.

And that's how I operate my life  (African American Quotes) Let me tell you, never before in the history of this planet has anybody made the progress that African Americans have made in a 30 year period, in spite of many black folks and white folks lying to one another  (African American Quotes) If we can elect an African American as president, we can support gay marriage! Defeat prop 8! We will not give up!  (African American Quotes) I mean, you got the first mainstream African American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice looking guy. I mean, that's a storybook, man  (African American Quotes) The simple truth is that balding African American men look cool when they shave their heads, whereas balding white men look like giant thumbs  (African American Quotes) There's good reason to be excited. You have the first woman running who is qualified, and a very attractive African American who has demonstrated crossover appeal. I got involved in politics 40 years ago during the civil rights movement, so yes, it's an exciting thing  (African American Quotes) Lovie Smith and I are not only the first two African Americans but Christian coaches showing that you can win doing it the Lord’s way and we’re more proud of that  (African American Quotes) African-Americans who might have disagreed with candidate Obama’s left-of-center politics voted for him in 2008 because electing a candidate with brown skin was too historic an opportunity to miss  (African American Quotes) I don’t think people have been able to deal with the fact that African American filmmakers can make movies about life and relationships  (African American Quotes) I was able to do To Sleep with Anger, a very powerful film about African Americans, their spirituality, and the things that happened within a small community and a family  (African American Quotes) Sports and entertainment have always been windows of opportunity for African Americans, when other doors were closed  (African American Quotes) The large ensemble cast and the fact that it was being shot in New York, combined with a lot of strong positive images as far as African Americans are concerned, really turned me on to The Best Man  (African American Quotes) This is the place where anybody - like an African American kid raised by a single mom - can be president  (African American Quotes) Seriously though, my father was the first African American to sign a contract with the Metropolitan Opera so I grew up with classical music and jazz in the home all the time  (African American Quotes) There is no way that we know what is going on between the African American and the Asian American.
