    As I listened to Mr. Baldwin I gained knowledge of what some blacks felt. As a child of the deep south born in 1949 I never thought of my blackness as something different. As a direct descendant of slaves who owned property immediately after slavery and was completely isolated for 50+ years from day to day contact with whites on one of the sea island of South Carolina we were taught that there was nothing on earth greater than yourself but God. This was handed down by former slaves who forgave their slaveowners and gave their God the absolute credit for their freedom.

    12:10 'something of me was waiting for me there' in the southern states of America and in Africa
    15:15 'something stronger than the western culture that had almost destroyed me' when he stepped off the plane in Dakar, Senegal
    20:45 'this country is so peculiarly infantile'
    'artists lead you back to reality... help you through your midnight hours'
    'it's not so easy to shoot a rider'
    'you cannot mismantle it [art!]; it is as necessary as air'

    I do t know about forgiveness of them, but as Mr. Baldwin said they must come through the door of him to see himself, to know me him and anyone else..Come through his door and light will shine then and only then.

    Yea, when you have and things are going well,but when the road is rocky and theres no easy way through,and no hand to assist you then you know whom they are. Actually, it's what you already thought.
