Black Camelot

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or camelot:

    Had middle class black women begun a movement in which they had labeled themselves “oppressed,” no one would have taken them seriously.
    bell hooks (b. 1955)

    Ask every person if he’s heard the story,
    And tell it strong and clear if he has not,
    That once there was a fleeting wisp of glory
    Called Camelot ...
    Don’t let it be forgot
    That once there was a spot
    For one brief shining moment that was known
    As Camelot.
    Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)
