“if at all, since the Civil War. In Greenwood, many black workers were still earning 30 cents an hour and returning huge profits for these Dixiecrat barons. For those who toiled in the fields there seemed only one hope. The ratio of black people to white”
Ian Bell, Once Upon a Time: The Lives of Bob Dylan

“Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach.”
Ian Bell, Whistling in the Dark
