More quotes by John Howard Griffin, Black Like Me

"The author explains that some find recourse from injustice in literature and art but that these tend to deepen sensitivity to injustice rather than dull it."
"The author meets an African-American who observes that his fellows who begin with aspirations to a good education, solid career, and the raising of a family slowly lose that incentive. Even those who have a college education, he observes, need to take menial jobs and begin to look for excitement in less productive places."
