On African American Women and Their Church Hats:
“Our crowns have already been bought and paid for. All we have to do is wear them.”
—James Baldwin
“We just know inside that we’re queens. And these are the crowns we wear.”
—Felecia McMillan, journalist
“Listen, never touch my hat! Admire it from a distance. Those are the hat queen rules, honey.”
—Peggy Knox, child care provider
“You can flirt with a fan in your hand. You can flirt holding a cigarette, too. But a woman can really flirt with a hat.”
—Dolores Foster, real estate agent (retired)
“My husband said, ‘You don’t need another hat. You don’t have but one head.'”
—Dorothy Wynecroff, middle school teacher (retired)
