Greg Iles Quote
The system is broken! And one of the reasons it’s broken down here is that it’s largely run by and for black people. They simply do not place a high cultural value on education, and I’m not going to pretend otherwise any longer. I can’t believe it. Like so many Yankee transplants, Caitlin has had a dramatic change of heart on the issue of race. But though I’ve seen it before, I would never have expected it from her. That’s a pretty racist view, Caitlin. I’m not a racist, she asserts. I’m a realist. If I said those things, I’d be labeled a racist. Does being from Boston make it all right for you to espouse those views?
