“My life as [an African-American] in America had led me to feel–though my helplessness had made me try to hide it from myself–that the problem of human unity was more important than bread, more important than physical living itself; for I felt that without a common bond uniting men, without a continuous current of shared thought and feeling circulating through the social system, like blood coursing through the body, there could be no living worthy of being called human." - Richard Wright
Okay, you know how I start my blogs with a quote? Well, here is one that is just the quote.
