Text Quotes
If you’re African American, you are forced into making different choices, in a lot of cases, than you are as a white person.  (White Quotes) Let me just say, at once: I am not now nor have I ever been a white man. And, leaving aside the joys of unearned privilege, this leaves me feeling pretty good ...  (White Quotes) Many African-American men are incarcerated. And so African-American women do carry an enormous burden. And traditionally have carried a greater burden than perhaps their white counterparts.  (White Quotes) Police officers are the best of us. And the men and women, white, African-American, Asian, Latino, Hispanic, they put their lives on the line every single day.  (White Quotes) Every pastor I talk to says, and particularly if they’re African American they’ll say, I’m not black enough for African Americans. I’m not white enough for the whites. I’m not Hispanic enough.  (White Quotes) I wouldn’t be surprised to see a lot of guns going off, you know, guns held by white men acting as vigilantes, cops who feel more free to open fire against African Americans.  (White Quotes) What happens is sometimes these congregations will still have the white style of worship, even though they’re mixed, because folks are willing to give up whatever they may have come with. So it’s still quite a stretch for African Americans, yeah.  (White Quotes) It’s fair to say that white America wouldn’t have elected an African-American president without the integrating effect of black music - from Louis Armstrong to hip-hop - and black drama and fiction, commercial as much as ‘serious.’  (White Quotes) Anyone who watches a lot of television, or listens to pop music, is familiar with a certain vision of America. If not exactly colorblind, this America is one in which different races easily interact, in which a white person might have an Asian boss, Hispanic stepson, or African-American frenemy.  (White Quotes) Being born white in South Africa or anywhere in the empire and Commonwealth automatically conferred this special status. You had no problem finding a place to live, a job, trade union membership, access to social services. Being white, speaking English, you were accepted as English, entitled to all the rights of citizenship.  (White Quotes) In the white community, the path to a more perfect union means acknowledging that what ails the African-American community does not just exist in the minds of black people; that the legacy of discrimination - and current incidents of discrimination, while less overt than in the past - are real and must be addressed.  (White Quotes) I grew up with white parents and until after college, it was a lot of confusion, especially because I grew up in an all-white area. So I never looked around and saw anyone who looked like me.  (White Quotes) I hate it when, after I let a white person know they’ve said something racist, I end up having to listen for hours to their life.  (White Quotes) The forests are held cheap after the white pine has been culled out; and the explorers and hunters pray for rain only to clear theatmosphere of smoke.  (White Quotes) The thorns thinned out and the trees grew taller and straighter, their branches not beginning until a few feet over our heads. The white, peeled bark of the birches looked buttery in the long, slanting afternoon light, and their leaves were a delicate gold.  (White Quotes) I had always enjoyed the title of Commander-in-Chief until I was informed ... that the only forces that cannot be transferred from Washington without my express permission are the members of the Marine Corps Band. Those are the only forces I have. I want it announced that we propose to hold the White House against all odds at least for some time to come.  (White Quotes) The same way that racism is a white person’s problem, violence against women is a men’s problem.  (White Quotes) I’m not focused on radio or whether I’m going to get all the audiences... all I wanted were great songs that were universal to any listener - Black, White, Green, Yellow; any kind a age difference.  (White Quotes) No Republicans won the White House since the Jurassic age without winning Ohio. But for the Democrats, it doesn’t matter.  (White Quotes) We’re about to shoot an episode on Air Force One, for instance, and we’re going to take liberties, small liberties, with Air Force One, as we take small liberties with our White House set.  (White Quotes) When we were growing up we only got two pairs of shoes every year. With me, I was lucky because I got three pairs of shoes, the third were basketball shoes: Black Air Force Ones, White Air Force Ones, and boots for the winter.  (White Quotes) I can still remember them wheeling the black and white TV sets into our classroom at school so we could watch the men landing on the Moon, and that obviously had a huge impact. I later found out those people flying Apollo were ex-military test pilots, so I decided to join the Air Force and become a test pilot.  (White Quotes) I used to keep my Air Jordans icy white. I had one toothbrush for my teeth - and a couple of toothbrushes for my shoes.  (White Quotes) As a child, I copied Tenniel’s illustrations from ‘Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland’ obsessively, particularly his drawing of the white rabbit in waistcoat and frockcoat, umbrella tucked under one arm and a fob watch in paw, a look of suppressed panic in his eye.  (White Quotes) All black Americans have slave names. They have white names; names that the slave master has given to them.  (White Quotes) I understand the all black or all white look (to be perfectly blunt, it’s easy and you don’t have to think about it very much) but would any of us really want to be one of those people?  (White Quotes) I don’t like to see projects that are all black or all white. It’s how life is. I do like to make sure that I do a nice black family film; that’s like keeping my home base. I do other things, but I like to always come back to a positive family film, because of all the negative influences today.  (White Quotes) It doesn’t matter whether you’re black, Hispanic, white. They’re all in the same boat.  (White Quotes) At first, I didn’t like coming down to Los Angeles at all. It’s like, everything’s black and white compared to where I live out in the middle of nowhere. There’s, like, 400 people in my town!  (White Quotes) To me, most of life kind of lives in the grey and I don’t just mean morally. I just mean kind of everything. If things were black and white it would be a lot clearer as to what to do all the time.  (White Quotes)
