*Yawn* Me and Kristy were all planning to camp out in front of the Tower records for the Dice Raw jawn, but Mr.Raw is making us wait. Ya'll are hurtin' my heart. But I shall wait like good little girl. Becuase for T.H.E.M, I'd go anywhere and do anything...well, almost anything.

Dice Raw: "Reclaiming the Dead", September 19, 2000" Your just going to have to wait.
The brutal truth is that the bulk of white people in America never had any interest in educating black people, except as this could serve white purposes. It is not the black child's language that is in question, it is not his language that is despised: It is his experience. A child cannot be taught by anyone who despises him, and a child cannot afford to be fooled. A child cannot be taught by anyone whose demand, essentially, is that the child repudiate his experience, and all that gives him sustenance, and enter a limbo in which he will no longer be black, and in which he knows that he can never become white. Black people have lost too black children that way. (James Baldwin)
