Respecting Black Women: "C. Vivian Stringer, the head coach of the Rutgers University women’s basketball team, urged the audience at a symposium on respecting Black women to remain vigilant and to broaden the conversation from the Don Imus incident to all of the ways in which Black women are degraded and disrespected on a daily basis.
Her comments were directed to a group of journalists, clergy, activists and educators who converged on the historic Schomburg Center for Research in Culture in Harlem Tuesday evening to participate in a lively symposium titled, “R-E-S-P-E-C-T When Did We Lose It? How Do We Get It Back?”"
