The Fact of Blackness

"I found that I was an object in the midst of other objects." (109)

"Frightened! Now they were beginning to be afraid of me. I made up my mind to laugh myself to tears, but laughter had become impossible." (112)

"When people like me, they tell me it is in spite of my color. When they dislike me, they point out that ti is not because of my color. Either way, I am locked into the infernal circle." (116)

"The Negro is a toy in the white man's hands; so, in order to shatter the hellish cycle, he explodes." (140)
