The enormous success of 2009's 'The Blind Side,' in which Sandra Bullock makes a black teenager one of the family, demonstrates that America isn't post-racial. It is thoroughly mired in race - the myths that surround it, the guilt it inspires, the discomfort it causes, the struggle to transcend it. Wesley Morris
Karl Philipp Moritz quote: "St. Paul's arose like some huge mountain above the enormous..."
St. Paul's arose like some huge mountain above the enormous mass of smaller buildings. Karl Philipp Moritz

I have enjoyed the years enormously in Cleveland and especially in Baltimore. Art Modell
