“If you think that changes sum'n about all this, then you STUPID, boy! It's been Black folks like you, Jake, since it's been Black folks--you know you sound like a fool. Because when you gone, it's gon' be a whole lot more just like you to be born. And they will know who you were and know that it's okay to live, because you lived before them.”
― Ryan Douglass, The Taking of Jake Livingston
