    I could literally watch Nikki speak all day every other day. She's like a favorite aunt who speaks with such honesty and humor while telling her truths. She's such a National Treasure LOVE LOVE LOVE Nikki #Flowers4theLiving

    I love Ms. Giovanni because she "does not take no tea for the feva". She tells it like it is and cares not what anybody thinks.

      Met her once back at my PWI college in the late 80's. The Black student council who brought her there didn't like her and asked me to drive her back to the Detroit airport from Midwest Ohio (about an hour). Me and my roommate had the most enlightening hopeful for the future fun conversation with her.
