“That's one of the biggest losses, I think, to African American families, is that people, once they left, they turned away from the South. They didn't look back, and they often didn't tell their children about it. They didn't want to talk about it. It was too painful, what they'd gone through and the caste system of the South, which was Jim Crow.” PeopleThinkingWantLooksChildrenLeftLossGoneSouthPainfulAfrican AmericanCrowCastesJim CrowAmerican FamilyCaste System Author:Isabel Wilkerson

“When I look over my past, I see that the stages in my life are like the phases of the moon. I've had periods where I was the waxing gibbous: fat with wealth and success. There have been other seasons when my happiness was like the waning crescent and I watched my joy fade away slowly, merging with the atmosphere around me as if it never existed. Then I felt as if I was left with nothing more than an illusion, but happiness returns in time and glows once more in corpulent fullness.

“When you read a book, you generate beta waves irrespective of the book's content. But if you look up from it, and start watching TV - it doesn't matter what the content of the program is - the beta waves disappear and you start processing alpha and theta waves. These are the same waves that you generate during meditation. Reading is primarily left hemisphere and watching television is primarily right hemisphere. Now how could that not have a major effect on our culture?” IfsLooksBookMatterCultureReadingLeftMeditationEffectsTelevisionTvsMajorsProgramWaveDisappearLook UpProcessingHemisphereAlphasWatching TvWatching TelevisionBetaTheta Author:Leonard Shlain
