- Ms. WALKER: Well, I would have said that I write out of what I know. And I write out of my experience and out of the experience of people that I have known. And I don't make up brutality. I don't make up violence because it's something that I like or it's something that I want to use to malign black people. But I write about it because it is a very strong reality in all of the communities on the planet. You know, violence is everywhere. It's not just black, it's not just white. And I think that I come -- I mean, I know that I come -- out of a tradition where you are supposed to say when you see something is wrong. You know, I came of age during the civil rights movement. And I think most of the black men who took part in that movement would definitely understand what I'm saying. I mean, I saw them confront white people who were abusive to us, you know? And so when they see that I am willing to confront black men who are abusive to us, they should be able to recognize it as the same violence and really to applaud it.
Interviewer is neither here nor there, but Alice Walker is brilliant!
Very good book. Interesting film. Whoopi Goldberg is marvellous!

The interviewer is terrible, here. I never like her, in any interview. Ever.
