“The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any.” — Alice Walker
Happy birthday to author and activist Alice Walker! In 1982, she became the first Black woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for her iconic novel ‘The Color Purple.’ 💜
Walker is also a proud activist, best known for her commitment to women’s and civil rights. Today, we honor her for using her voice to remind us of the power we all hold.

A look at three interesting books I've read recently. Digging into memoirs right now.
Recently I’ve been reading memoirs and biographies, taking a little break from fiction. Reading across genres is a great way to expand my thinking, and I often gain some nugget of wisdom and self-awareness from the experiences of other people who have written thoughtfully about their own lives. One of my recent reads is Can’t We Be Friends, a retrospective on the friendship between Marilyn…

Today we're wishing a very happy birthday to novelist and activist — Alice Walker — who was born on February 9, 1944. 
🏆 In 1982, Walker became the first Black woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for her novel, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘳 𝘗𝘶𝘳𝘱𝘭𝘦.
📚 Often included on banned book lists, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘳 𝘗𝘶𝘳𝘱𝘭��� documents the traumas and gradual triumph of Celie, a Black teenager raised in rural Georgia. The novel explores themes of cyclical racism as well as sexism, the power of female relationships, and the disruption of conventional gender roles.

Com excelência, a Warner liberou o primeiro trailer oficial do filme A Cor Púrpura. A produção é uma nova adaptação do musical da Broadway.
O elenco do filme conta com a cantora Fantasia Barrino, Taraji P. Henson, Danielle Brooks, Colman Domingo, Halle Bailey, Aunjanue Ellis e os cantores H.E.R. e Jon Batiste. A direção fica com Blitz the Ambassador e a equipe de produtores conta com Oprah Winfrey, Steven Spielberg, Scott Sanders e Quincy Jones.
Tanto o musical da Broadway como o filme são baseados no livro homônimo de Alice Walker, onde a escritora conta a história de dificuldades de famílias afro-americanas na Geórgia durante o século XX. A versão musical estreou em 2005 e foi indicada a 11 prêmios Tony.
Vale ressaltar que A Cor Púrpura já tinha virado filme em 1985, com direção de Spielberg.
Nos EUA, o filme estreia no dia 25 de dezembro, no Brasil a produção ainda não tem data de estreia.
