Kovas Ghetto Beat

Famous quotes containing the words ghetto and/or beat:

    “We have got to stop the nervous Nellies and the Toms from going to the Man’s place. I don’t believe in killing, but a good whipping behind the bushes wouldn’t hurt them.... These bourgeoisie Negroes aren’t helping. It’s the ghetto Negroes who are leading the way.”
    —Fannie Lou Hamer (1917–1977)

    “I told you, sir, they were red-hot with drinking;
    So full of valour that they smote the air,
    For breathing in their faces, beat the ground
    For kissing of their feet.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
