A red spot. Bright red. Like the bright red from a cycle starting. Why is that a big deal? I was seven weeks pregnant that Tuesday. I called the doctor and was connected to the nurse.

Dr. Angelou speaks with a fluid elegance and authority that makes people stop and listen. It was riveting to watch her interview with Dave Chappelle from the Sundance show Iconoclasts.
