Ta-Nehisi Coates Quote
But he said that his general optimism about the shape of American history remained unchanged. To be optimistic about the long-term trends of the United States doesn’t mean that everything is going to go in a smooth, direct, straight line, he said. It goes forward sometimes, sometimes it goes back, sometimes it goes sideways, sometimes it zigs and zags.
