Nothing seems to matter but ourselves. That's not how I was brought up. I don't recognize the country I live in anymore.
I believe it to be a fact that the colored people of this country know and understand the white people better than the white people know and understand them.
I said, 'Okay, it's the year 2000, I'm getting a computer and a Palm Pilot.' I know how to check my e-mail, and I've listed some phone numbers on it. Half the time the battery has gone out so I can't use it.
