“So that’s why he came to Memphis—“to assert my right to think for myself, to refuse to have my ideas assigned to me as though I was an intellectual slave because I’m black. I come to state that I’m a man, free to think for myself and do as I please.… I will not be consigned the unquestioned opinions of others.”
Myron Magnet, Clarence Thomas and the Lost Constitution

“Even fervent abolitionists, viewing blacks as equal in rights but inferior socially and culturally, didn’t relish having freedmen come north to live beside them but wanted them to stay down south.”
Myron Magnet, Clarence Thomas and the Lost Constitution

“Poet Walt Whitman, a Civil War hospital volunteer who later interviewed pardon-seeking Confederates, remarked that “in any other country on the globe, the whole batch of Confederate leaders would have had their heads cut off.”
