Soledad O’Brien
I would say I'm black because my parents said I'm black. I'm black because my mother's black. I'm black because I grew up in a family of all black people. I knew I was black because I grew up in an all-white neighborhood. And my parents, as part of their protective mechanisms that they were going to give to us, made it very clear what we were.

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent...All religion, my friend, is simply evolved...Pretend inferiority and encourage his arrogance...If you actually succeed in creating a utopia...Just as your car runs more smoothly...Where there is great love, there are always wishes...
