Quote by MJ

“Growing up in a house where everyone was welcome, I had no idea that racism ever existed. Imagine being so nieve that when I was called a "cracker" I thought he was teasing me because I was so pale, (like a saltine cracker). After someone explained to me what being called a "cracker" meant, I realized being white means I am viewed by those with black skin as the enemy. I AM WHITE, I AM NOT A RACIST- IT IS BLACK PEOPLE WHO ARE RACIST AGAINST ME.....”

In a people's world, the incurable racist has no rights. He must be deprived of influence in a people's government. He must be segregated, as he himself would segregate the colored and semitic peoples. As we now segregate the leprous and the insane.”

White man culture, very good.” She slides her chin down to her wrist. “Second comes Yellow man culture. Yellow also good.” She lifts her head and serves me a pitiful glance. “Sorry to tell you, Kumar. Other species comes only below.”
