A long time ago, I took a walk down a street in Harlem in New York City. I came upon a man who asked me for a dollar. He had asked a few other people before me, but they only passed him by without glancing his way. I stopped and handed the man some money. As I began to turn away, he reached out and shook my hand.

But how do we know that it wasn't someone working for him, walking around in disguise, just to see what we would do?
eye boys white
Emmett Till and I were about the same age. A week after he was murdered... I stood on a corner with a gang of boys, looking at pictures of him in the black newspapers and magazines.

I couldn't get Emmett Till out of my mind, until one evening I thought of a way to get back at white people for his death.
