She discusses how this view of black-writers burdens the critics, the reader, and thus the writer. She talks about her choice of the beginning and why she thinks it was the wrong choice. She describes her questions, her motivations and the circumstances of writing the novel. She eventually discussed how the inability to fight had allowed black people to mind themselves (which is a very interesting and genuine take)

Toni Morrison is talking about how social positions would force your writings to be viewed as political, and thus being judged based on how faithful or faithless they are to a certain kind of politics rather than being judged based on the aesthetics of the work.
