Jonathan Coleman Quotes

Though it’s impossible for us to legislate one’s thoughts and feelings, we still need things like affirmative action in place because without measures like it, people in charge would not have, sadly, enough impetus to do, as cliched as it sounds, the right thing Picture Quote #1

I have an obligation as a writer to tell a story as interestingly as possible, but with integrity and not inserting false drama... I’m looking to be subtle, but being a wordsmith does not interest me - I want to communicate Picture Quote #1

Don’t sit and wish for some ideal; the grass is not always greener with the big house and cars and artwork Picture Quote #1

Blacks essentially play the race card, when necessary as a counter to white privilege Picture Quote #1

In writing non-fiction about people who are living, you are always walking a fine line, carrying a burden to be fair that, in my opinion, should always be there Picture Quote #1

Race is used, by all of us, in the most manipulative ways, is often force-fit and reduced to something it isn’t, to something that gives us a sense of comfort, a false one. Many of us thought - needed to feel - the whole business was ‘settled.’ But it’s not, never has been. Laws have only taken us so far Picture Quote #1
