"There are at least two victims here, to overstate my case perhaps. There is the Black. There's also the poor white, who finds himself in a peculiar kind of prison because he thinks it is important to be white. And doesn't realize that the prison he thinks he is watching -- the Black one -- is a mirror of his own."

+ James Baldwin, from an episode of "Folks", lpb_org, 1986
