But as things die, sometimes they intensify. That isn't so. Integration has never been tried in this country. It has not even been defined. If you put two, three blacks in an all-white institution, it's not integrated. . . .

Confronting racial issues positively and understanding the critical connection between that and the practice of true democracy is our challenge for the year 2000. It will take the same kind of courage found in many of the men and women whose struggles are in this book. From the 1950's Through the 1980's.
