"I am not tragically colored. There is no great sorrow dammed up in my soul, nor lurking behind my eyes. I do not mind at all. I do not belong to the sobbing school of Negrohood who hold that nature somehow has given them a lowdown dirty deal and whose feelings are all hurt about.
…No, I do not weep at the world—
I am too busy sharpening my oyster knife.”
--From "How it Feels To Be Colored Me," World Tomorrow, 1928
