“Von ihrer Familie entfremdet und schwanger von einem Mann, mit dem sie nicht gesehen werden durfte, war sie auf sich allein gestellt. Sie kam in den Kreißsaal, die Ärzte schnitten ihr den Bauch auf, griffen hinein und holten ein halb weißes, halb schwarzes Kind hervor, das gegen eine Reihe von Gesetzen, Statuten und Vorschriften verstieß - ich wurde schon als Verbrechen geboren. - S. 40”

“An der H. A. Jack School erkannte ich, dass ich schwarz war. Vor meinem Erlebnis im Pausenhof hatte ich mich nie entscheiden müssen, doch als ich dazu gezwungen wurde, entschied ich mich für schwarz. Die Welt betrachtete mich als farbig, aber ich verbrachte mein Leben nicht damit, mich selbst zu betrachten. Ich betrachtete andere Menschen. Ich sah mich so, wie ich die anderen Menschen um mich herum sah, und diese Menschen waren schwarz. - S. 77”

“Melanin Maniacs (The Sonnet) White guy writes a couple of sonnets and plays, And he is idolized as an olympian deity. Colored guy smashes the paradigm to ashes, And it warrants absolute unacceptability. Apparently, greatness is only greatness, If it can be credited to a caucasian. Otherwise they only end up pondering, What's the deal with this non-white person! It's a sad, sad world we live in, All the advancement is on the outside. Inside we are dumber than Donald Duck, Which has ruined all hope for real insight. Enough of this obsession with white aphrodisiacs! It's time to act as humans, and not melanin maniacs.”

“Here we do not think that see-through skin is truthful because it lets you see the person inside, or that solid skin is wiser because it shuts out prying eyes. We do not think that dark skin is fairer, or fair skin is finer. We do not think of skin at all. We simply live in it, and let live in it.”

“Hannah, as if she understood her place in the cosmos, grew from quiet infant to watchful child: a child fond of nooks and corners, who curled up in closets, behind sofas, under dangling tablecloths, staying out of sight as well as out of mind, to ensure the terrain of the family did not change.”
