My Wife And I Went To Jail In Selma. The Difference When I Was Back There Recently? White Folks? No. Black Folks Who Were Not Scared. I Was Behind The President This Time. When I Was A Little Boy And Ran Around With Trifling Dudes, I Was The Only One Scared Of Dogs. And I Was Bitten 14 Times! Dogs Smell Scared. And That's The Same Thing With People: 50 Years Ago They Smelled Fear. There Was No Fear This Time.
