More From Frederick Douglass

White people scare the crap out of me. i have never been attacked by a black person, never been evicted by a black person, never had my security deposit ripped off by a black landlord, never had a black landlord, never been pulled over by a black cop, never been sold a lemon by a black car salesman, never seen a black car salesman, never had a black person deny me a bank loan, never had a black person bury my movie, and i've never heard a black person say, 'we're going to eliminate ten thousand jobs here - have a nice day!'

I've never seen a sincere white man, not when it comes to helping black people. usually things like this are done by white people to benefit themselves. the white man's primary interest is not to elevate the thinking of black people, or to waken black people, or white people either. the white man is interested in the black man only to the extent that the black man is of use to him. the white man's interest is to make money, to exploit.

General education is the best preventive of the evils now most dreaded. in the civilized countries of the world, the question is how to distribute most generally and equally the property of the world. as a rule, where education is most general the distribution of property is most general.... as knowledge spreads, wealth spreads. to diffuse knowledge is to diffuse wealth. to give all an equal chance to acquire knowledge is the best and surest way to give all an equal chance to acquire property.

Greek architecture taught me that the column is where the light is not, and the space between is where the light is. it is a matter of no-light, light, no-light, light. a column and a column brings light between them. to make a column which grows out of the wall and which makes its own rhythm of no-light, light, no-light, light: that is the marvel of the artist.

White folks have controlled new orleans with money and guns, black folks have controlled it with magic and music, and although there has been a steady undercurrent of mutual admiration, an intermingling of cultures unheard of in any other american city, south or north; although there has prevailed a most joyous and fascinating interface, black anger and white fear has persisted, providing the ongoing, ostensibly integrated fete champetre with volatile and sometimes violent idiosyncrasies.
