Swagger Lee the New Age Negro

"And for these new heroes, trying to be more than what they are, which is the oppressed, the angry, the stereotypical minority they need further support and development, but also a name. Something like but not necessarily Swagger Lee, a New Age kind of negro. "

“I say we change the rule. I say my power should be our power. Tomorrow, Willow will use the essence of the scythe to change our destiny. From now on, every girl in the world who might be a Slayer, will be a Slayer. Every girl who could have the power, will have the power. Can stand up, will stand up. Slayers? Every one of us. Make your choice. Are you ready to be strong?”

This is why I can’t fathom people hating season 7.  If you do not get chills and cry during this, I can’t even.  The empowerment is off the charts.

Yep. I can’t even look at this gif set without getting a little misty-eyed. There’s just so much about “Chosen” and this particular moment in Buffy that I love and that defines me as a human being. I feel like if I tried to explain that to someone they’d be all “Buffy… Buffy the Vampire Slayer… defines you as a person?” And I’d be all “Fuck you of course it does! Buffy asked me if I was ready to be strong, dammit! And I am!”

So much beauty.
