Our Man in the Dark QUOTES

Our Man in the Dark QUOTES

1 " I used to wonder how a man working for the saintly organization of the saintly Dr. King could find himself in such a sinful place. But I'm no saint although I'm a good Christian, and even the best Christians are more familiar with sinners than saints. "

― Rashad Harrison , Our Man in the Dark

2 " The sight of a cross on fire should be unsettling to any true Christian. To a Negro it is worse. A unique kind of fear enters your mind, one perfected by the South: that you could die for the most harmless of offenses. You could die just for the crime of living. "

― Rashad Harrison , Our Man in the Dark

3 " Most people let the beast in them run amok, John. And they merely shrug their shoulders at the damage left in its wake. America has let that beast run wild. I may not be morally perfect, but we are on the right side of morality. We need to remind America of its moral obligation to accept the struggle within itself. It’s not one fight, but many fights that need to be fought. It’s America’s duty to live up to its promise, in practice and principle, and to accept that challenge whenever it is presented. "
