From today's movie
“But if you do run fast enough, if you do survive you grow up in the streets, these houses, your parents try but in the end you only get the education the white man gives you. Then you go to the city to work or shop and you see their streets, their cars, their houses and you begin to feel there is something not quite right with yourself, about your humanity- something to do with your blackness because no matter how smart or dumb a white child is he is born to that world. But you the black child smart or dumb you are born into this, smart or dumb you die in it.”
Denzel Washington as Steve Bantu Biko, Cry freedom (based on- "Biko" and "Asking for trouble" by Donald Wood)
