James Baldwin was one of the leading literary voices of the civil rights movement.
Baldwin 's essay " My Dungeon Shook " was written in the form of a letter to his nephew.
The letter is a powerful treatise on the state of racism in America .
It richly illustrates the ironies of how race relations dampen the humanity of all involved.
James Baldwin : "I know how black it looks today , for you. It looked bad that day , too, yes, we were trembling. We have not stopped trembling yet, but if we had not loved each other none of us would have survived. And now you must survive because we love you, and for the sake of your children and your children's children".
Baldwin : Great men have done great things here, and will again, and we can make America what America must become.
It will be hard, James , but you come from sturdy, peasant stock, he says.
Baldwin : We cannot be free until they are free.
