America has been at war with North American Africans since we arrived as victims of kidnapping, mass rape, torture, terror and trauma. James Baldwin told me in a 1968 interview, "Nothing else happened here but us. For a black father to raise a black son in this environment is a miracle. I applaud the men who are able to do so. It's a wonder we all haven't gone stark raving mad."
--Marvin X
