Ta-Nehisi Coates Quotes

Unfit For The Schools, And In Good Measure Wanting To Be Unfit For Them, And Lacking The Savvy I Needed To Master The Streets, I Felt There Could Be No Escape For Me Or, Honestly, Anyone Else. The Fearless Boys And Girls Who Would Knuckle Up, Call On Cousins And Crews, And If It Came To It, Pull Guns Seemed To Have Mastered The Streets. But Their Knowledge Peaked At Seventeen, When They Ventured Out Of Their Parents' Homes And Discovered That America Had Guns And Cousins, Too.
