#YEBies Personified “The artist must elect to fight for freedom or slavery. I have made my choice. I had no alternative. The history of the capitalist era is characterized by the degradation of my people: despoiled of their lands, their true culture destroyed... denied equal protection of the law, and deprived their rightful place in the respect of their fellows.” -Paul Robeson #WeAreYEBies https://www.instagram.com/p/Bno1kBEHWYs/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6fosv3syxiqq
