when feminism was seen, predominantly, as predominantly white and middle class. one of the most famous images of the area, taken in october of 1971, the two raised their right arm in the black power symbol. the national is now in the national portrait gallery. hughes work was always rooted in political activism, organizing the first shelter for battered women in new york city. cofounded the new york city agency for child development. may she rest in power. i remember, as a teenager, when i started the national human movement, dorothy pittman supported us. when people go see loudmouth, the story that is of my life in activism, one of the people that helped me as a teenager, and never ever last, with dorothy pick misuse. goes-t loudmouth, you ll see a lot of what we had to deal with in new york and then moving to
teenage years, all the way up to now. what is important to me about it, i had nothing to do with the editing of it, it was done by john legend s film company director josh alexander. no input from me. but they used raw footage, interviewed me. but they used footage going back to the 80s. the 90s. donald trump s new york, where people were chasing us and calling us the n-word. and when i would lead protest marches, they would come out openly and throw watermelons at us. you will see in this documentary, northern racism. you will understand that donald trump s playing to that crowd. that s what he grew up around. queens is where he was born and raised. watch loudmouth, i had to be loud for how issues will be heard in the new york. along with many others. go see loudmouth and learn about manicured racialism in the north. we will be right back.
