QUOTE OF THE WEEK
“I am a classic overachiever. I am always doing something extra-- as women do, as black people do, as women of color do-- so all the powers that be will accept me for the amazing, powerful human being that I'm right now. And I see men not doing the extras and receiving the extras. But I am going to take the measured and thoughtful steps toward changing my life."
--Danyel Smith, culture lead at ESPN's "The Undefeated"
