"The truth I happen to be most interested in has to do with the nature of oppression, and how people survive it, or don't," author Toni Morrison told Ed Bradley in this 1998 interview.

What brutal honesty.My career military father felt the same way.He once said that he would do anything to defend Democracy and defend the constitution and hold those accountable to uphold it's principles.Why? Because he realized the hatred for Blacks has bubbled above and below the surface for centuries in America and that any other type of system would lead to our demise.As far as the psychological aspect,my father took every opportunity to take his 3children to different countries around the world to see how other human beings view each other. What an eye opening experience The Good and the bad.What a humbling experience.He realized that developing a world view experience is one effective remedy for American Blacks to better cope in such a race and class conscious society.I love America.America is my home.My father's wish was for his three children to strive to make it better for all it's citizens.

Questions are asked to bring out information, allowing the interviewee to expound on something of interest. She certainly has something interesting to say about it, because if you know anything about all of her writing, she strives to eliminate what she calls "the white gaze" in her writing. The question was very important to, and central to the writer's intent in her work.

Because it was 60 minutes in America in 1998, and the audience viewing was majority white. He was interviewing for an audience who have been separated from the black experience. White people by in large don't have these experiences yes they might be aware but back then they weren't trying to relate.

What she is talking about is my life in the South Bronx, there were no white people in my world. If they did exist they were racist cops, a racist white teacher here and there or some racist Italian Americans. But they were peripheral to my world, which was culturally rich, Caribbean Latino and African American. If I had to write about my childhood it would be a world where the white gaze did not exist. My world was filled with Afro Latino and African American faces, laughter, pain, music, food, culture and love..

So I left and it was hard, United States was all I knew but the fear is gone now. I no longer worry that I will be hated, shunned, yelled at just for being who I am. I had no control over it, I didn't choose it and it is with this in mind, I am in peace... at last! Thank you. .Toni Morrison..RIP🌹

Honestly, what does it matter if there not in our community as long as the systematic system of white supremacy is still embedded as normal practice within society. We don't have a chance, that's Institutional racism that leads to discrimination in criminal justice, employment, housing, health care, political power, and education, among other issues.

Why should anyone be concerned over the ethnicity of her lead character ? It doesn't make sense to me

Love that she’s not interested in the white gaze. Whiteness is not central to her nor her writing. Love her. She also keeps racism where it belongs, in the hearts and minds of who’re people. They created and it’s their problem. ✌🏾

She is a beautiful artistic person. Also, don't forget that some black and white people have deep loving friendships and marriages together. When people do meaningful work together, they create community and trust and come overcome strife. I am lucky to have this exact experience.
