I Believe If The White And Colored

Since I Personified The Savage On The Stage, I Tried To Be As Civilized As Possible In Daily Life.

When I Was A Child And They Burned Me Out Of My Home, I Was Frightened And I Ran Away. Eventually I Ran Far Away. It Was To A Place Called France. Many Of You Have Been There, And Many Have Not. But I Must Tell You, Ladies And Gentlemen, In That Country I Never Feared. It Was Like A Fairyland Place.

I Have Two Loves: My Country And Paris.

I Have Walked Into The Palaces Of Kings And Queens And Into The Houses Of Presidents. And Much More. But I Could Not Walk Into A Hotel In America And Get A Cup Of Coffee, And That Made Me Mad.

I Ran Away From St. Louis, And Then I Ran Away From The United States, Because Of That Terror Of Discrimination.
