Contralto; first black soloist with New York Met, 1955; received Presidential Medal of Freedom, 1963; first black singer to perform at White House. As long as you keep a person down, some part of you has to be down there to hold him down, so it means you cannot soar as you otherwise might. Fear is a disease that eats away at logic and makes man inhuman. I forgave the DAR many years ago. You lose a lot of time hating people. I have a great belief in the future of my people and my country. Prejudice is like a hair across your cheek. You can't see it, you can't find it with your fingers, but you keep brushing at it because the feel of it is irritating. You lose a lot of time, hating people. |
