we are all colored girls, in the pursuit of our own rainbows
I read the two books "the hope" and "the color purple", and I have a lot of interest and emotions about the stories of these colored women and girls. The movie can give four stars and give these actors their superb acting skills, especially the long line skills. But I always feel that the director...

Very moving, I stared blankly at the screen, not knowing what to say for a long time. This film looks straight into the inner world of black women with a unique vision, those poems, and many other things I don't know how to express

Juanita: [enters the office] Hi! I'm Juanita Sims, and I'm so glad
[shakes hands with Jo]
Juanita: you took this meeting. Now I'll be quick, because I know you're very busy.
[sits on the chair]
Juanita: I read in your magazine about your upbringing. I just knew that this would be a program that you would respond to. First of all, I'm a nurse, and I have just opened a free health and wellness clinic in a community center in one of the poorest neighborhoods in this city. Oh, forgive me. I'm just a little nervous. As you know...
Jo: Where do I come in?
Juanita: Well... It's a little non-profit, and everything I do I do out of my own pocket and...
Jo: Let me stop you right now. I give to cancer, I give to Africa, I give to education. Those are my charities of choice.
Juanita: Well, those are all very good charities, but there is so much need in our own community.
Jo: 'Our?' We are all afforded the same opportunities in 'our' community. What they do with theirs, it is not my issue. Your answer is no. End of conversation.
Juanita: End of conversation?
Juanita: Crystal, show Miss Simmons out.
[Crystal comes in]
Jo: It's Sims. Miss Juanita Sims.
[leaves Jo's table]
Crystal: [to Juanita] Right this way.
Juanita: [stops and turns back to Jo] No. I've been waiting out there in that damn lobby of yours for over an hour for you. Now, it's cool, you don't want to give any money, I get that. But this attitude, this blatant disrespect for other people's time and feelings, well, honey, that's just ridiculous. Does it take all of this for you to be that? Then, honey, if it does, then you may be paying just a little too much. And I can see myself out of this tacky-ass place. Ain't got no color up in here, all this white. No color up in this place, including you.
[walks out of the office]
Juanita: Tacky-ass heifer. Wait till I tell everybody how tacky you are. I can show my own self out, thank you very much.
[tries to open the door]
Juanita: How do I open this damn door?
