And black men must forgive black women for our own sometimes dubious choices, divided loyalties, and lack of belief in their possibilities. Only when our sons and our daughters know that forgiveness is real, existent, and that those who love them practice it, can they form bonds as men and women that really can save and change our community.”
    —Marita Golden, educator, author. Saving Our Sons, p. 188, Doubleday (1995)

    —The Lions Clubs International and the Quest Nation. The Surprising Years, I, ch.5 (1985)
