"IF YOU WOMEN�!
I mean ladles-me through yack­
ing about preachers, I want to talk
about the Beauty aOO the Beast,"
Sam d. "AM the filst thing I
want to tmighten out is: the
Beauty had the right to be
wherever she waned to be at any
oour of the day of night, Am all
that tuff about ·respedability' �
00gwMh."
"What's your motive, Sam?"
Bessie aUed. "At tina you are a
male chal.l\lirmtic pig too. So woo

Peart, Me, or it Sugar PlI;1"
'Oodkoows itain'tyou�e
and I don't need you to
matchmake me either," Sam said.
"I just agree with what the Beauty
saidon1V"
"And what wa that?"
Sister Pearl ked.
"ThatJ" Sam replied. "Taking
sides becaU9C of gender Is oot
what � Ovil Riglm Movement
is about. AM � next thing is: we
don'tnced preac�rs. politicamor
any do-good body legislating
morality. As the late poet,
Ethridge Knight wro1e, ·We me
free. Funky free.'"
"Yeah! I agree with that but I
still think you have a IOOtive,"
Bessie said. "It's ftmoy mw we
were given Christianity during
slavery aOO the p�r was al­
lowed to preach the Quistian ver­
sion ofwbite control am yet with
all of the' book learning and
sophistication we have supposed­
Iy acquired, we are still slaves to
that concept"
"LORD. God. Have mercy on
this child, Father. She don't koow
what she is saying," Sister Pearl
said. :
� heck I don't know what
I am saying. " Bessie responded, "I
am sick aOO tired of preecbers
speaking for all African
�ricam.At the least they speak
for' themselves m1 at the most
they speak for their congrega-
tion." .
"I tr.ard that," Wichi1a said.
"Every time one of these
reverems opers Ilk lOOuth the
white media say he is spealdngfor
Black�rlca. "
"Olild, do you realize mw far

PeariMkcd.
"No I don't," Wichi1a said.
