Charles Rowan Beye Quotes
I Think Of The Black Youngster Who Comes Home Sobbing To Tell His Mother That Some Other Little Children Kicked Him And Called Him "nigger", And His Mother Puts Her Arms Around The Boy To Comfort Him And Explain How Monstrous White People So Often Are. I Can See That Same Scenario Played Out In Germany In 1930s When The Race Laws Went Into Effect. But This Youngsters Had Adults Who Helped Them Understand Hatred And Prejudice And Condemnation. The Gay Child Walks Into His Home, The Only Place Where The Human Race Can Expect Sanctuary, To Find That The Larger Societal Prejudices Are Just As Vivid There. He Is Alone
