It has become one of my life's goal to rid the internet of this quote mistakenly attributed to James Baldwin. It was not Baldwin, it was Robert Jones. I shall fail, of course, but I persist.

Please change or delete.

Hi Kim

There is a correct version by Robert Jones

https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/sear...

Unfortunately I can't merge the two versions together as the merge function for quotes has been broken for at least 11 years.

& I tried to edit the tags to show it an an incorrect attribution, but it didn't take.

Even if I could delete, (I can't because there are more than 10 likes) someone would just add it back.

Well one of those mysteries. When I added my two new tags one at a time they took. Please allow 20 minutes for this to display.
