Dark Brown

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or brown:

“The inference is, that God has restated the superiority of the West. God always does like that when a thousand white people surround one dark one. Dark people are always “bad” when they do not admit the Divine Plan like that. A certain Javanese man who sticks up for Indonesian Independence is very lowdown by the papers, and suspected of being a Japanese puppet.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)

“Whippersnapper clerks
Call us out of our name
We got to say mister
To spindling boys”
—Sterling Allen Brown (b. 1901)
