From Harry Belafonte's Autobiography "My Song," Regarding Segregated Bathrooms. [View all]

"Toward the end of our tour, our bus stopped at a Greyhound station outside of Richard, Virginia, and I went off groggily to relieve myself not noticing the White Only sign on the bathroom. As I unzipped my fly in front of a urinal, I heard a low, hate-filled voice behind me. ‘You let go one drop, you’re a dead n----r.’ I turned to see a state trooper, standing there with his hand on his holstered gun.”

It occurred to me that the same thing could soon happen to Laverne Cox in a few States. It was never about 'bathroom rights,' either then or now. It's always been about certain people wanting to put people they dislike in their place.
