Both class and race survive education, and neither should. What is education then? If it doesn't help a human being to recognize that humanity is humanity, what is it for? So you can make a bigger salary than other people?
heaven earth heaven-and-earth
Heaven and earth! How is it that bodies join but never meet?
racist culture theater
Having grown up in a racist culture where 2 and 2 are not 5, I have found life to be incredibly theatrical and theater to be profoundly lifeless.

Race, what is that? Race is a competition, somebody winning and somebody losing. Blood doesn't run in races! Come on!
real hate writing
