Fulbright, J. William

Description

-29- The people of the South are burdened with an historical legacy that the rest of the nation does not share. They are marked in some ways by a strange disproportion inherited from the age of Negro slavery. The whites and Negroes of Arkansas and the South are equally prisoners of their environment and no one knows what either of them might have been in a different environment or under other circumstances. Certainly, no one of them has ever been free with respect to racial relationships to the degree that the Vermonter or the Minnesotan has been free. The society of each is conditioned by the presence of the other. Each carries a catalogue of things not to be mentioned.
