“It astounded me when I really began to understand the depth of racial
intolerance in Mississippi. I was shocked. I didn’t think that nice folks
could be so full of hate. I believe it’s fear to start with, and hate too. Fear
comes first and hate comes close afterwards.”–Buford Posey, interview
with Wesley French, 2007 (from Olivia Moore’s blog)
