| All you are ever told in this country about being black is
that it is a terrible, terrible thing to be. Now, in order to survive this, you have to
really dig down into yourself and re-create yourself, really, according to no image which
yet exists in America. You have to impose, in fact - this may sound very strange - you
have to decide whou you are, and force the world to deal with you, not with its idea of
you --James Baldwin |
