I'm saddened that it took over four decades for me to learn more about this man. I first saw video of James Baldwin in the pre concert clips that Morrissey has been recently. Bernard and I went to see "I Am Not Your Negro" last Sunday. It's a must see for every American and everyone. This quote impacted me so much that I have to share it with you. So fitting for these times.

"I'm terrified at the moral apathy -- the death of the heart which is happening in my country. These people have deluded themselves for so long, that they really don't think I'm human. I base this on their conduct, not on what they say, and this means that they have become, in themselves, moral monsters. It's a terrible indictment." - James Baldwin
