...Nixon has finally said something that demands our respect and our thought. His declaration that "we have to get private enterprise into the ghetto" is a concrete suggestion. For too long the average American has seen the ghetto as an abstract horror of human existence. For too long, the average American has bought off "his own sense of guilt" by trying to alleviate poverty through his tax money.

The method that the police exercised was excellent, but, I'm afraid, not quite as forceful as I, and many others, would like to have seen.

In this view of the Black Experience, the slave trade is seen as the beastly act of beastly White men--or, in Malcolm X's memorable phrase, "White Devils"--who without pity or remorse wrenched millions of Negro Africans from their ancestral homeland for enforced and dehumanizing labor in the Western Hemisphere...
