Day 14 of 28.
The Color Purple is a story of survival, sisterhood, and the slow return to self.
Celie teaches us that even in silence, a voice is forming. Even in darkness, something is growing.
Black women’s stories are not footnotes.
They are foundations.

She is best known for her third novel, titled The Color Purple. The book’s main character is – like Walker, herself – a Black woman struggling against white supremacy and the stultifying rules imposed by the patriarchy within her own community. Walker became the first African American woman to be awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and it was for The Color Purple. She has written 16 other novels and many collections of short stories and poetry.

It is also the birthday of the novelist who wrote,
“The more I wonder, the more I love.”
The American writer who simultaneously confronted racism and misogyny, Alice Walker was born on this day in 1944.

#Sinners was too Black for Hollywood! It’s #TheColorPurple all over again.
I have a feeling that #Sinners is going to end up getting the same results as the 1985 version of #TheColorPurple did during its #AwardsSeason for *reasons*.
That makes me sad. #moviesky #GoldenGlobes

The Color Purple gets banned for the same reason it changed people’s lives. It centers Black women, names abuse, honors queer love, and refuses to apologize for survival. Books that tell the truth are always the first ones they target. Full article on Substack. #TheColorPurple #BannedBookSeries
Happy birthday Whoopi Goldberg, born November 13, 1955.
