“I was never threatened…I never knew anyone who was lynched. But there was subtle racism every day of my life. You could not speak to a white man unless he spoke to you first. On the sidewalk, I’d have to move so a white person could walk by.”

Ernest J. Gaines (1933–2019) Novelist, short story writer, teacher

But when I look ahead up the white road
There is always another one walking beside you”

“You're the one who's nearly
Breaking my heart;
Had your chance
You just threw it all away.

You could never be a part of,
And now is a time to walk away.”
