America is deeply rooted in Negro culture: its colloquialisms, its humour, its music.How ironic that the Negro, who more than any other people can claim America's culture as his own, is being persecuted and repressed, that the Negro, who has exemplified the humanities in his very existence, is being rewarded with inhumanity.

  Statement on sleeve of Freedom Suite.

The academic atmosphere, produced mainly by the humanities, is the onlyatmosphere in which pure science can flourish.
