W.E.B. Du Bois Quotes
Again, We May Decry The Color-prejudice Of The South, Yet It Remains A Heavy Fact. Such Curious Kinks Of The Human Mind Exist And Must Be Reckoned With Soberly. They Cannot Be Laughed Away, Nor Always Successfully Stormed At, Nor Easily Abolished By Act Of Legislature. And Yet They Must Not Be Encouraged By Being Let Alone. They Must Be Recognized As Facts, But Unpleasant Facts; Things That Stand In The Way Of Civilization And Religion And Common Decency. They Can Be Met In But One Way - By The Breadth And Broadening Of Human Reason, By Catholicity Of Taste And Culture.
