FYI, not a Baldwin quote. Often attributed to James Baldwin, but it was actually said by Robert Jones Jr. Jones Jr. coined this quote to capture the intent of his project "Son of Baldwin"

How are people still making this mistake?!

Thanks. A good quote. And Baldwin should be required reading... but proper attribution is a part of a robust intellectual framework.

Only reason I know is did the same thing and attributed it to Baldwin. Being wrong on the internet being kind of a hobby of mine 🤪

Even then, I won’t hate you because hatred hurts me. But my relationship with you will be strained and I will protect myself first before considering you!

The quote is great.

I just feel that people freely apply it to support their own flawed take on matters they know too little about, too often.

Such a wise man.

Or someone else's oppression... I am no longer willing to be quiet when privileged people betrayed the weak or underprivileged.

New rule: only candidates who have written a best selling novel are allowed to run for president.

Go figure I just discovered last night that one of his books along with The Handmaids Tale is on the banned list for Arizona Board of Education. So glad I moved from there before graduation and raising my child in a state that’s not like that.
