The operation was successful and the patient is doing well, thank you. The terrible struggle that made me an American out of a potential slave said “On the line!” The Reconstruction said “Go!” I am off to a flying start and I must not halt in the stretch to look behind and weep.”
    —Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)

    And I’m OK,

    And I work all day.”

    “Awake! the land is scattered with light, and see,
