White Americans have the option of not having to think about race on a daily basis. People of color don't. Race is a major deciding factor in their lives and the histories of their families.

Whites would rather not be involved in race matters, I think.

Today's white majority is largely silent about the race question.

While it is desirable to build up the colored race, we must not sacrifice our best and purest white friends.

You spend your whole lifetime in your occupation, actually making life clever, easy and convenient for white people. But when you have to get transportation home, you are denied an equal accommodation. Our existence was for the white man's comfort and well-being; we had to accept being deprived of just being human.

White middle- and upper-class men have a longer journey to go than many people.

I say stupid white men are always the problem. That's never going to change.

A white-boy attitude is 'I must exclude, denigrate, and leave behind.' They don't see it or think about it. It's a culture.

As far as I'm concerned, and this is a big theme of mine, I'm not interested in white people loving me. It's an unrealistic expectation. Black people don't love anybody but themselves.

Poor privileged white men. Their stranglehold on power is slowly being loosened.
