(Image ID: Part of a Q & A article with James Baldwin. A picture of Baldwin is next to text that reads:
How would you define somebody who smashes in the window of a television store and takes what he wants?
Before I get to that, how would you define somebody who puts a cat where he is and takes all the money out of the ghetto where he makes it? Who is looting whom? Grabbing off the TV set? He doesn't really want the TV set. He's saying screw you. It's just judgement, by the way, on the value of the TV set. He doesn't want it. He wants to let you know he's there. The question I'm trying to raise is a very serious question. The mass media-television and all the major news agencies-endlessly use that word "looter." On television you always see black hands reach in, you now. And so the American public concludes that these savages are trying to steal everything from us, And no one has seriously tried to get where the trouble is. After all, you're accusing a captive population who has been robbed of everything of looting. I think it's obscene./end ID)
James Baldwin: “After all, you’re accusing a captive population who has been robbed of everything of looting. I think it’s obscene.”
