I would love to share the teachings of Dr. Michael Eric Dyson on my face book page for everyone to see and hear what a great and powerful speaker he is and how he brings together the Woman and Men of Color, LGBT community, and woman and men of all races and gender. I love his “power” “his energy” his “enthusiasm” for what he believes in, as I agree with his beliefs as well. Being a feminist man I beleive stronger on his beliefs on woman than he does but he is still an amazing speaker.
