{"quotes":[{"text":"Daddy didn’t say anything for a minute or so, and then he reached up and caught a firefly as it glowed beside him. “See this light?” he asked me when the firefly lit up his hand.“Yes’r.”“That light is bright enough to light up a little speck of the night sky so a man can see it a ways away. That’s what God expects us to do. We’re to be lights in the dark, cold days that are this world. Like fireflies in December.”“Time meandered on without Gemma’s momma and daddy, and it meandered on without Cy fuller and Walt Blevins. . . But those of us left behind viewed life more dearly, felt it more keenly. I’d learned a bit more about God and I’d seen His powerful hands at work. As I was growing, my heart was changing. And the way I figured it, there were lessons learned in those dark days that would help me for years to come.”“As I sat on the porch on that December day . . . I leaned my head against the rail and sighed deeply. The way I figured it just then, my summer may have been full of bad luck, but my life wasn’t. I figured as far as family went, I was one of the luckiest girls alive.","author":"Jennifer Erin Valent","tags":["death","racial-prejudice"],"id":31123,"author_id":"Jennifer+Erin+Valent"},{"text":"Sentiments that glorify humanity know no racial distinction.","author":"Abhijit Naskar","tags":["africa","african","african-american","ambitions","black-history","black-people","brainy","character","evolution","human-life","human-race","human-rights","humanism","humanismo","humanist","humanitarian","humanitarian-activities","humanitarian-crisis","humanitarian-efforts","humanitarian-intervention","humanitarianism","humanitarians","humanity-and-society","inspirational","life","love-and-kindness","origin-of-human-rights","origin-of-life","origin-of-species","philosophy","race","race-and-racism-in-america","race-issues","race-of-life","race-relations","races","racial-discrimination","racial-equality","racial-identity","racial-injustice","racial-prejudice","racial-profiling","racial-superiority","racism","sentiments","social-psychology","truth","words-of-wisdom"],"id":43166,"author_id":"Abhijit+Naskar"},{"text":"The races are like America's children. White people are the firstborn, so they were Dad's favorite. Black people are the second kids, the abused ones, so they still hate Dad. Latinos are the third, caught in the middle and always trying to make peace between the other siblings. Asians are the youngest, and get good marks in school, but basically are just trying to keep their heads down and not get involved.
