Original Statements:
"And there's no point in telling white people every minutes, 'you're bad, you're bad, you're bad.' They know it. They want to do it that way. // No, you just - don't add to. Just hear. Just hear. The reason we never get it right is because people add their knowledge." -Elma Lewis
