“he realized that From Cooter to Michael Coble, his purpose as his fallen friend’s sentinel was futile. The world was too harsh and unforgiving, and he, Ahmad, Napoleon James and the residents of Hoptown, armed with optimism, small-caliber firearms, God and their idealistic blockade were insufficient barriers to inevitability. Solidarity, prayer and vengeance were all useless. As always, the strong prevailed, and the weak, the right, and the innocent were slaughtered and forgotten.”
― Michael Harriot, The Situation in South Carolina: A Novel
