Richard Wright
“I was not leaving the south to forget the south, but so that some day I might understand it”
Richard Wright, Black Boy

Frances Ellen Watkins Harper
“Intense love is often akin to intense suffering.”
Frances Ellen Watkins Harper, Collected Works of Frances Ellen Watkins Harper

Ralph Ellison
“America is woven of many strands. I would recognise them and let it so remain. Our fate is to become one, and yet many.”
Ralph Ellison, Invisible Man

Ralph Ellison
“I was pulled this way and that for longer than I can remember. And my problem was that I always tried to go in everyone's way but my own. I have also been called one thing and then another while no one really wished to hear what I called myself. So after years of trying to adopt the opinions of others I finally rebelled. I am an invisible man.”
Ralph Ellison, Invisible Man

bell hooks
“Wisely, Baldwin insisted that we are always more than our pain. Not only did he believe in our capacity to love, he felt black people were uniquely situated to risk loving because we had suffered.”
bell hooks, Salvation: Black People and Love
