“As a little kid, not only is my dad Jo-Jo White, but M. L. Carr is involved in the family, Red Auerbach is my godfather, and my stepmother was an Olympic-caliber sprinter. Athletes were all around.

“I have nothing against a community that is made up of people who are Polish, or who are Czechoslovakians, or who are French Canadians or who are blacks trying to maintain the ethnic purity of their neighborhoods. This is a natural inclination... Government should not break up a neighborhood on a numerical basis. As soon as the Government does, the white folks flee.” PeopleShouldTryingDoeMadeGovernmentCommunityNaturalWhiteBreakBasesFolksPurityNeighborhoodInclinationPolish Author:Jimmy Carter
“Ambitious young women today are taught to ignore or suppress every natural instinct, if it conflicts with the feminist agenda posed on them. All literary and artistic works, no matter how great, that document the ambivalence of female sexuality they are trained to dismiss as "misogynous." In other words, their minds are being programmed to secede from their bodies ... there is a huge gap between feminist rhetoric and women's actual sex lives, where feminism is of little help except with a certain stratum of deferential, malleable, white middle-class men.” IfsMenMindLittlesMatterHelpingBodyTodayYoungCertainSexNaturalWhiteClassFeminismMiddleTaughtHugeConflictFemaleInstinctFeministSexualityArtisticMiddle ClassAgendasGapsAmbitiousRhetoricYoung WomenDocumentsAmbivalenceFemale SexualityNatural InstinctLittle Help Author:Camille Paglia

“Frivolous thinking is due to foreign thought. Japan must no longer let the impudence of the white peoples go unpunished.

“[W]e have always resented the natural inclination of most white people to demand spirituals the moment it is known that a Negro is about to sing.

“If Martin Luther King, Roy Wilkins or any of these compromising Negros who say exactly what the white man wants to hear is interviewed anywhere in the country you don't get anybody to offset what they say. But whenever a black man stands up and says something that white people don't like then the first thing that man does is run around to try and find somebody to say something to offset what has just been said. This is natural but it is done.” PeopleIfsMenWantTryingFirstsDoeSaidCountryDoneRunningBlackNaturalWhiteKingsCompromiseWhite ManLuther Author:Malcolm X
