现在我已完全认识到还有别的贫民窟，那里的白人也在为维持生计而拼命挣扎，然而多半都失败了。我知道那里的街上也在流血，那里的人们遭受的损害无法估计。人们不断地向我提起白人的不幸，以让我对黑人的不幸感到自慰。但是，一一列举美国的失败之处，并不能使我，也不能使别人感到宽慰。成千上万美国白人实际上活的与“黑鬼”一样，但人们不应对此怡然自得。这件事所揭示的社会与道德之彻底失败，却是最令人新上心酸和震惊的。

I am not satisfied with myself, but, as I cannot live a second lime, I can only find some readjustment and compensation in writing.
