“Racism is not merely a simplistic hatred. It is, more often, broad sympathy toward some and broader skepticism toward others.”
― Ta-Nehisi Coates, We Were Eight Years in Power: An American Tragedy

“Religious discrimination is not like racial discrimination. One you choose for yourself, the other God chose for you.”
― Habeeb Akande

“Racism negates two aspects of man's life: reason and choice, or mind and morality, replacing them with chemical predestination.”
― Ayn Rand, The Virtue of Selfishness: A New Concept of Egoism

“Initially, the purveyors of racism need no more than the silent acquiescence of the public ... [I]t is never too soon to confront bigotry and racism whenever, wherever, and in whatever form it raises its ugly head. It is incumbent upon all people to confront even the slightest hint of racist thought or action with zero tolerance.”
― Hans J. Massaquoi, Destined to Witness: Growing Up Black in Nazi Germany
