“Not everything that is faced can be changed; but nothing can be changed until it is faced.”
“The purpose of art is to lay bare the questions hidden by the answers.”
“Freedom is not something that anybody can be given. Freedom is something people take, and people are as free as they want to be.”
“Only those who would fail to see the relationship between the fight for civil rights and the struggle for world peace
would be surprised to see me. Both fights are the same.”
— James Baldwin
