Among the American contemporaries I read with most enjoyment are several North Carolinians. I think the best poetry being written these days is being written by Southerners.
Robert Morgan
Basically there is no difference between whites and blacks, browns and yellows. I decided to think no more of people as Northerners and Southerners.
Ethel Waters
For generations, even many otherwise decent white Southerners learned to despise black people.
Linda Chavez
I think we Southerners have talked a fair amount of malarkey about the mystique of being Southern.
Reynolds Price
Southerners can never resist a losing cause.
Margaret Mitchell
Their prejudice allowed white Southerners to look the other way when blacks were denied their most basic human rights, and it encouraged the worst of them to engage in unspeakable acts of cruelty and violence.
Linda Chavez
