Well who's black and what is a black person?
Pam Grier

I was discriminated against because I was Jewish, Italian, black and Puerto Rican. But maybe the worst prejudice I experienced was against the poor. I grew up on welfare and often had to move in the middle of the night because we couldn't pay the rent.
Philip Zimbardo

Black people should have recognition for themselves and their backgrounds and their relationships with other people in the world and thus lose some of their alienation. This museum has certainly stood for that in this town.
Katherine Dunham

My clothes are predominately black and my home is predominantly white.
Fran Drescher

It is not the intelligent woman v. the ignorant woman; nor the white woman v. the black, the brown, and the red, it is not even the cause of woman v. man. Nay, tis woman's strongest vindication for speaking that the world needs to hear her voice.
Anna Julia Cooper

My father is black and my mother is white. Therefore, I could answer to either, which kind of makes me a racial Lone Ranger, caught between two communities.
Wentworth Miller


The Blues scene now is international. In the '50s it was purely something that you would hear in black clubs, played by black musicians, especially in America. But from the '60s onwards it changed.
Mick Taylor

Baby, black promoters oppressed me before white promoters ever got hold of me. Don't talk skin to me.
Mahalia Jackson

The internet to me is kind of like a black hole, and I never really go on it.
Jennifer Lawrence

I never refused my help to any person black or white; and I liked the office nonetheless because there were neither fees nor salary connected with it.
Salmon P. Chase

I read the script, and I knew it was a good part. It was written for a white actor. That's what I'm up against - I have to try to make roles happen for me that aren't written black.
Gregory Hines

That's how we do it in the black community; we give back to the people who made us who we are. We never forget that.
Snoop Dogg


No one who's white thinks he's innocent. No one who's black thinks he's guilty.
Andrew Young

I got out of the Army - in my world - I came to New York, for instance, when the civil rights movement was just beginning, and that created a certain energy, a certain rumble, a certain impetus for black actors.
James Earl Jones

Besides black art, there is only automation and mechanization.
Federico Garcia Lorca

If black people mistrust white people, they are mistrusting racism, and that is appropriate.
Jasmine Guy

Black Sabbath was written on bass: I just walked into the studio and went, bah, bah, bah, and everybody joined in and we just did it.
Geezer Butler

The Geezer album, Black Science, had a lot of keyboards and it did not work.
Geezer Butler

I think that black Africa is extremely terrifying. Black Africa can become a maelstrom of warring tribes without the outside world needing to feel the need to do anything about it.
John Keegan

You know, I don't play the race card a lot. I'm half-black, half-white, and I'm proud of - my skin is brown. The world sees me as a black man, but my mother didn't raise me as a black man. She didn't raise me as a white guy.
Shemar Moore
