Parks summarizes the film in the following quotation. : "My mother had freed me from the curse of inferiority long before she died by not allowing me to take refuge in excuses that I had been born black... when I think back to my years as a pullman car waiter, flophouse porter, piano player, in a hotel at sixteen ... I know what I think I don't want for my children or their children ... I can only hope that the weapons they choose will be tempered with love instead of hatred." 541 0 PFA 1612-01-13181.
