"When I accepted the church’s name for me, I lost my power and vivacity and authenticity because their name for me wasn’t true. They reduced my identity of wife, mother and singer. Yes, I am those things, but I am also many other things. I am also an individual with opinions and ideas. I’m a communicator and an artist. When any person is deliberately limited because of their gender, race, sexuality and so on, bells and sirens should being going off in our minds.” quote from Shannon Harris' book The Woman They Wanted.
