JAMES BALDWIN-"To be 'Black' (my substitution-Baldwin's original word, given the time, was "Negro.") in this country and to be relatively conscious, is to be in a state of rage almost all of the time — and in one's work. And part of the rage is this: It isn't only what is happening to you. But it's what's happening all around you and all of the time in the face of the most extraordinary and criminal indifference, indifference of most white people in this country, and their ignorance."
Thank you again, James Baldwin.
