A Quote from W.E.B. Dubois, Circa 1903

"I sit with Shakespeare, and he winces not. Across the color-line I move arm in arm with Balzac and Dumas. I summon Aristotle and Aurelius and what soul I will, and they come, all graciously with no scorn nor condescension."...……...So in a smidge over a hundred years, the leaders of the "black community" have gone from religiously emphasizing wisdom and knowledge (regardless of the imparter's pigmentation) to literally attempting to suppress it as a form of white supremacism (Al Sharpton going as far as to call Plato and Aristotle, "Greek homos"). How fucking sad is that?
