In order that he might rob a neighbour whom he had promised to defend, black men fought on the coast of Coromandel and red men scalped each other by the great lakes of North America Picture Quote #1

We are the only class in history that has been left to fight its battles alone, unaided by the ruling powers. White labor and the freed black men had their champions, but where are ours? Picture Quote #1

Black women sharing close ties with each other, politically or emotionally, are not the enemies of black men Picture Quote #1

In discussions around the hiring and firing of black faculty at universities, the charge is frequently heard that black women are more easily hired than are black men Picture Quote #1

No other group in America has so had their identity socialized out of existence as have black women. When black people are talked about the focus tends to be on black men; and when women are talked about the focus tends to be on white women Picture Quote #1

As far as I knew white women were never lonely, except in books. White men adored them, black men desired them and black women worked for them Picture Quote #1

One out of three black men are in the criminal justice system in some form. Their despair is beginning to resonate through the entire culture; that is why suburban children want rap music Picture Quote #1

Black people can be the most conservative, the most discriminating. Especially among ourselves. It wasn’t white people who said all black men have to wear baggy jeans Picture Quote #1
