"saw a woman on the street without makeup on
and cvery one stared at her like they thought
she was crazy, hur drcss was below her knees and
the rest of her body was covered. It was natural
but 4t seemed unreal to them. Down the stiset
further I saw a manish woman or 2 womanish man, I
don't know which, and nobody paid the least
attention to it. To them it was perfectly normal.
thit just gocs tc show you how mixcd up we are,
We are net to blame, it is the way we were
taught by th: clad slave master, everything we

everything we say with the bibie. We tcll gou
th. truth snd nothing but the truth and the truth ©

since you were treught over here. We haven't
known any freedom, justice, or equality and that

under tne Christian rili,gion, so isn't it time you
