No. Never. There’s too much politics and animosity. —Julius Tolbert, Writer, Roxbury

No, because most people in power don’t feel like black people are owed reparations. —Ant Thomas, Artist, Roxbury

No. I think the government is still in denial that there’s a problem. Racism is so implicit. —Alicia Mooltrey, Community Organizer, Roxbury
