“The Afro-American experience is the only real culture that America has. Basically, every American tries to walk, talk, dress and behave like African Americans.”

“I have loved her all my youth,
But now old, as you see;
Love likes not the falling fruit
From the withered tree.
Know that love is a careless child
And forgets promise past;
He is blind, he is deaf when he list
And in faith never fast.”
—Sir Walter Raleigh (1552?–1618)
