Hillary Clinton: ‘Black Girl Magic Is Real’
The Huffington Post ^ | September 16, 2016 | Sam Levine, Associate politics editor

“You are the changemakers, the path breakers, and the ground shakers,” Clinton said at the Black Women’s Agenda.

Hillary Clinton on Friday celebrated the achievements of African American women, telling an audience at the Black Women’s Agenda that they were proof that “black girl magic was real.”

Black girl magic, which isn’t in the dictionary just yet, is a phrase used to celebrate the awesomeness of black women.

The event was hosted by the Black Women’s Agenda Symposium Workshop, which is the organization dedicated to addressing disparities faced by black women.

Clinton said that all women have to work harder at the office while still bearing responsibilities at home ― a challenge that can be even more difficult for black women.

Black women, she said, “leave the house every morning, put on that game face that well all practice, and enter a social that consistently challenges your worth ― with the images you see, the lower pay that so many take home; that try to silence your voices and break your spirits. That you remain fierce in the face of the challenges.”

Noting that black women, too, were artists, successful entrepreneurs and community leaders, Clinton acknowledged that their stories were often passed over by the mainstream narrative.

“While your stories are often missing from the history books, make no mistake, you are the changemakers, the path breakers and the ground shakers,” she said. “And you are proof that yes indeed, black girl magic is real.”(continued)

I’m a salsa and hot sauce nut. Eat it on everything. Was on the big island of Hawaii and couldn’t find it anywhere. Drove thru Taco Bell and asked the gal for lots of fire sauce. She gave me a double handful and I threw it in my purse. Everywhere we went people laughed when I’d pull it out and use it. Lol

“Keep seeking. Maybe someday you’ll grow up to be and act like a Man.”

I’m still seeking. Tag line has yet to change, yet I continue to change every day. I’m still a man and proud to be one. I appreciate your feedback but I’m pretty sure your opinion is useless...

You have given enough information about her that anyone who knows her could identify her, and also know that she was with a blabbermouth cad. If you have any honor at all, why not ask the mods to delete your post 11 and delete the post 16 below it where Talisker repeated the information. A doctor does not need this kind of gossip on the Internet.

Well in my defense, I always try to post quotes I'm responding to, especially when I'm castigating someone. And other than being an example of absurd, race-based sexual noblesse oblige TMI, I'm not seeing the harm to the frail damsel herself, even if she's ID'd. After all, college hijinks are not exactly a mystery.

But, carry on if you feel it's necessary. A bit White Knight if you ask me, though.

Magic alright..........can’t go to the grocery without hearing black girl magic on their cellphone three aisles over, afraid to eat my food served to me with three inch black girl magic nails, and worried something scary will jump out and attack me from their black girl magic hairdo. Very concerned I will be rear ended by a runaway handicap scooter driven by a black girl magic driver in a shopping center lot, who is heavier than my car. Sorry, I’m a DEPLORABLE just venting.

It really is a good hot sauce! I keep wishing they’d bottle and sell it in the grocery stores.

My black magic woman...

Can you please post some more about your past sexual conquests and exploits? Because the Internet still isn't sleazy enough for some.

Regards,

How many black girls and boys has she supported killing in the womb with her support of PP and being a Margaret Sanger award winner?
