Ta-Nehisi Coates Quotes

The Two Great Divisions Of Society Are Not The Rich And Poor, But White And Black," Said The Great South Carolina Senator John C. Calhoun. "And All The Former, The Poor As Well As The Rich, Belong To The Upper Class, And Are Respected And Treated As Equals." And There It Is - The Right To Break The Black Body As The Meaning Of Their Sacred Equality. And That Right Has Always Given Them Meaning, Has Always Meant That There Was Someone Down In The Valley Because A Mountain Is Not A Mountain If There Is Nothing Below.*
