Android: using intent without extending activity

I have two classes. FirstActivity and SecondActivity. In the FirstActivity I have something like this:

    Intent intent = new Intent(this, Color.class);
    intent.putExtra("keyName","#FFFFFF");
    startActivity(intent);

In the SecondActivity, I want to have something like this:

String data = getIntent().getExtras().getString("keyName");

The problem here is that I already extended "View" in my SecondActivity so my code above will not work in SecondActivity as I need to extend "Activity" to make intents work. How do I solve this? I guess it is by making another class extending Activity, but if I do that, what should I do to send things from my ThirdActivity to my SecondActivity?

You can simply use this:

    Intent intent = new Intent(context,MainActivity.class)
                      .setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);  
  context.startActivity(intent);
