Blacks Played

Famous quotes containing the words blacks and/or played:

    “We do not need to minimize the poverty of the ghetto or the suffering inflicted by whites on blacks in order to see that the increasingly dangerous and unpredictable conditions of middle- class life have given rise to similar strategies for survival. Indeed the attraction of black culture for disaffected whites suggests that black culture now speaks to a general condition.”
    —Christopher Lasch (b. 1932)

    “They sat together halfway up a cliff
    In a small niche let into it, the girl
    Brightly, as if a star played on the place,
    Paul darkly, like her shadow.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
