“There is a mental fear, which provokes others of us to see the images of witches in a neighbor's yard and stampedes us to burn down this house. And there is a creeping fear of doubt, doubt of what we have been taught, of the validity of so many things we had long since taken for granted to be durable and unchanging. It has become more difficult than ever to distinguish black from white, good from evil, right from wrong.” LongHas BeensEvilHouseFearDifficultBlackWhiteTakenDoubtTaughtNeighborGrantedWitchProvokingYardsValidityTaken For GrantedUnchangingStampede Author:Edward R.

“I am glad to welcome my friend Rand Paul into the 2016 GOP primary. Rand is a good friend, and we have worked side by side on many issues. I respect his talent, his passion, and the work he has done for Kentuckians and Americans in the U.S. Senate. His entry into the race will no doubt raise the bar of competition, help make us all stronger, and ultimately ensure that the GOP nominee is equipped to beat Hillary Clinton and to take back the White House for Republicans in 2016.” DoneHelpingPassionHouseSidesWhiteRaceIssuesDoubtTalentRepublicanBeatsMy FriendsStrongerRaisesCompetitionClintonGladBarsWelcomePrimariesNo DoubtWhite HouseSenateGood FriendEntryGopRaising The BarKentuckians Author:Ted Cruz

“We black women must forgive black men for not protecting us against slavery, racism, white men, our confusion, their doubts. And black men must forgive black women for our own sometimes dubious choices, divided loyalties, and lack of belief in their possibilities.

“Later, I would realize that the position of most black students in predominantly white colleges was already too tenuous, our identities too scrambled, to admit to ourselves that our black pride remained incomplete. And to admit our doubt and confusion to whites, to open up our psyches to general examination by those who had caused so much of the damage in the first place, seemed ludicrous, itself an expression of self-hatred - for there seemed no reason to expect that whites would look at our private struggles as a mirror into their own souls, rather than yet more evidence of black pathology.” FirstsLooksSoulSelfReasonBlackRealizingWhiteStruggleDoubtIdentityPositionStudentsCollegeExpressionPrideEvidenceHatredMirrorsConfusionDamageNo ReasonExaminationIncompleteSelf HatredPathologyPsychBlack Pride Author:Barack Obama

We're presumed incompetent, whereas a white male is assumed competent until proven otherwise. They just think the guy in the ball hat and the T-shirt over the thermal has got it, whether he's got it or not. For buzzy first films by a white male, the trajectory is a 90-degree angle.
