Re-read in honor of James Baldwin’s 100th birthday today. The full title: “Letter to my Nephew on the 100th Anniversary of the Emancipation.�

Contains one of my favorite Baldwin lines:
“If you know whence you came, there is really no limit to where you can go.�

Also, this:
“For this is your home, my friend, do not be driven from it; great men have done great things here, and will again, and we can make America what America must become.�
