On my father’s side we were enslaved in Texas. I am not oppressed, and I’m not a victim. I neither oppressed nor a victim. I travel all across this country of ours, and I check into hotels, and I fly commercially, and I walk into retail establishments, and I order food in restaurants. I go wherever I want whenever I want. I am treated with kindness dignity and respect, literally from coast to coast.".
