My children almost died during my pregnancy because doctors wouldn’t take my concerns seriously, dismissing me as just another black woman on Medicaid.
Black art is not some kind of a magic wand: there still has to be a humble heart attached that’s listening to it. And I know it’s not a wand because plenty of fans love to turn on us as soon as they realize we are actual black people, with black concerns in our black lives.

Our cultural discussion of fat bodies and how we clothe them has nothing to do with health concerns, the obesity epidemic, or the comfort of fat people. It has everything to do with what we expect from women, what we’ve been told by the fashion industry, and the value we place on ‘perfect’ bodies.

In the 21st century, white America got a wake-up call after 9/11/01. White America and the western world came to realize that people of color had not gone away, faded into the woodwork or just ‘disappeared’ as the Great White West kept on its merry way of ignoring black concerns.

Parents, of course, have concerns and ‘say,’ but they don’t have the right to shield their children from knowledge. That is not a right, any more than they have the right to shield their children from healthcare or medicine.

John Conyers’ office has been very responsive to citizen concerns and the Internet has presented a way to communicate with them in a way that’s never before been there.

Day-to-day concerns really trumped big dreams for quite a while in my life. I was so freaked out about money. And until, honestly, I was in my early thirties and made ‘Girlfight,’ that anxiety was a real issue: How are you going to live? How are you going to survive?
After a long run of almost thirty years, you get to the point where you say, ‘These are my concerns.’ It’s not so much this is what I set out to claim – it is a kind of refrain.

If I had to summarize, most broadly, my concerns as a writer, I’d say the question ‘How then must we live?’ is at the heart of it, for me.

Social media campaigns and the savviness of ISIS and propaganda is what greatly concerns us Homeland Security officials.
The industrial processes in use today were developed at a time when no one had to consider what the environmental impact was. Who cared? But making ecological concerns matter to a company’s bottom line will help it do the research and development that will reinvent everything we buy.
Rahul Gandhi is very idealistic and a very decent human being. He has real concerns for the downtrodden.
I had no concerns – I had no reason to have concerns based on what was available to me about North’s contacts with the private sector people, but I didn’t think a CIA person should do it.

I was brought up in an environment where my parents expressed their financial concerns in front of their children.

When it comes to my industry, I will always be there to voice our concerns.
I’m not someone who concerns himself with whether people pay to cheer Roman Reigns or whether people pay to boo Roman Reigns. People pay to see Roman Reigns. They pay to react to Roman Reigns.

I have more concerns about potential risks and vulnerabilities than most people.

For me, playwriting is and has always been like making a chair. Your concerns are balance, form, timing, lights, space, music. If you don’t have these essentials, you might as well be writing a theoretical essay, not a play.
If you’re reading a novel that was written in 1964, you’ll find out more about 1964 than if you’re reading a nonfiction book written in 1964 because you’re hearing how language was actually used and hearing what people’s actual concerns were at the beginning of the 1960s.

Hipsters being hipsters, coolness and inaccessibility have overtaken all other concerns. Food no longer matters. Even burgers are too foody.

What concerns me, is the general social tendency to enforce a level, above which nothing rises and stands out.

The midterms are a chance for people to vote out those they believe are failing to address the concerns of citizens.

When there were cases of Ebola in the States, I respected that people wanted to address concerns and take some sort of action, but the focus turned completely to the U.S. At one point, we started to wonder, Where is the Ebola epidemic happening? The States – or West Africa?

As a chef, I could not wash my hands – nor clean pots, pans, utensils, meats or produce, nor make soups and sauces – if I did not have clean water. Were this to happen, of course, these would be the least of my concerns. Because water is the linchpin of survival: without it, not much else matters.

Religion is a comprehensive concept. According to our learned people, our scholars, to pave the path for public welfare in worldly life and to provide spiritual uplift is part of religion. I think a yogi can do both things quite easily. And I manage to balance both worldly and spiritual concerns.

The thing that concerns me most is that, in the digital age, if we fail to make efforts to maintain the value of our content, there is the high possibility for the value to be greatly reduced, as the history of the music industry has shown.
I don’t consider the first-world concerns any less important than the third-world ones.

A good leader should balance what the coronavirus-limited ‘experts’ are arguing for with all other health, safety, security, and well-being concerns. Too few realize that.
