"I have had whites voice this Rice-Powell scenario to me, in an obvious bid for my approval.
I dare not inform them that, at that moment, I am contemplating whether to feel contempt or pity for them. I ponder the distressed white guy who wanders the earth every day worrying about whether someone, somewhere, might not know what a good person he is.

The newsletter's conservatism was derived from the wisdom of earlier generations of American blacks, like Booker T. Washington, who attempted to steer their people towards greater economic self-reliance.
The newsletter also challenged ideologues who misused "civil rights," in order to deny basic rights to others and to impose politically correct mandates.
