Cornel West Zitate

Part of the popularity with Louis Farrakhan has less to do with the content of his message and more to do with the form that he portrays himself - as being a free black person who speaks what is on his mind with boldness and fearlessness. Who is willing to pay the consequences.

Cornel West

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ein Teil der Beliebtheit bei Louis Farrakhan hat weniger mit dem Inhalt seiner Botschaft zu tun als mit der Form, die er selbst darstellt - als freier schwarzer Mensch, der mit Kühnheit und Furchtlosigkeit spricht, was in seinem Kopf ist. Wer ist bereit, die Konsequenzen zu bezahlen?

The painter... does not fit the paints to the world. He most certainly does not fit the world to himself. He fits himself to the paint. The self is the servant who bears the paintbox and its inherited contents.

Englisches Zitat von Robert Kennedy als Bild

If any man claims the Negro should be content... let him say he would willingly change the color of his skin and go to live in the Negro section of a large city. Then and only then has he a right to such a claim.

Michael Derrick Hudson is not the first person to slip into the identity of a person of color to give himself some perceived advantage. He can slip back into his life and not walk around in this world as a person of color who endures racism.

The reason to be an atheist is not that it makes us feel better or gives us a more rewarding life. The reason to be an atheist is simply that there is no God and we would prefer to live in full recognition of that, accepting the consequences, even if it makes us less happy.
