Imagery:

"Had I been fool enough to go to the Protestant chapel, one black face in a sea of white, and with guerrilla warfare going on between us, I might have ended up a Christian martyr - St. Eldridge the Stupe." Page 30

"The white man turned the white woman into a weak-minded, weak-bodied, delicate freak, a sex pot, and placed her on a pedestal; he turned the black woman into a strong self-reliant Amazon and deposited her into his kitchen - that's the secret of Aunt Jemima's bandanna." pg. 162
