The shame of this is that a seemingly decent man took his own life to bring attention to his cause.

He could have done so much more good with the remainder of his life.

That he couldn't see that for himself is a tragedy.

Precisely at the point when you begin to develop a conscience, you must find yourself at war with your society.
-James Baldwin

The history of the American Negro is the history of this strife, -- this longing to attain self-conscious manhood, to merge his double self into a better and truer self. In this merging he wishes neither of the older selves to be lost... He simply wishes to make it possible for a man to be both a Negro and an American...
-W. E. B. DuBois
