Discrimination is a hellhound that gnaws at Negroes in every waking moment of their lives to remind them that the lie of their inferiority is accepted as truth in the society dominating them.

—— Martin Luther King, Jr.

种族歧视就像是地狱的恶犬，咬噬着黑人的生命，时刻提醒着他们自己总是低人一等。这样的谎言，在统治他们的社会中，竟被当做了真理。

——马丁·路德·金

For you

When the white men constantly put emphasis on the difference between the blacks and themselves and claimed that they were superior to those blacks, did they have God in their minds? 当白人不断地强调他们与黑人之间的差别，并声称他们比黑人高一等的时候，他们心中可有上帝？
