Callie: How are you feeling about Jamal?
Malika: Well, what Jamal said isn't anything new. It isn't anything I didn't think about myself when I was a kid. You don't know what it's like to be a kid and not see yourself on TV or in books. And the little I did see, it took me a long time to see myself as worthy or valuable. Jamal never got there. He hated black women because he hated himself.
Callie: Aren't you mad?
Malika: Yeah, I'm always mad. And I'm always disappointed, and tired, and frustrated, and I wish that I didn't have to organize a protest for someone who couldn't see the beauty in his own people. I have to. I have to be there for everyone because we all should be there for each other.
Callie: Who's there for you?
