"Harry Belafonte: [Harry Belafonte is telling the story of being interviewed by Ed Sullivan, to possibly be booked on his show. Ed was reading a list of "un-American" things that Belafonte was being accused of and wanted Harry's response] I said to him that many of the things on the list were true and other things on the list were false. But i do not choose to identify which is true and which is false, because that is not really the issue. The issue is my right to privacy, my right to my beliefs as an American citizen. And that i was sorry that i did not have the opportunity to appear on his show. I would have dearly loved to do so, it would have meant a lot to my career and i thanked him and left... . [Belafonte would eventually get booked multiple times on the Ed Sullivan Show]"

"Self - Host: [When Jackie Robinson testified before the House Un-American Activities Committee, he said something that was taken out of the newsreel. He said:] The fact that it is a communist who denounces injustices in courts, police brutality and lynching, doesn't change the truth of these charges. Just because communists kick up a big fuss over racial discrimination when it suits their purposes, a lot of people pretend that the whole issue is a creation of the communists imagination and talk about communists stirring up Negroes to protest only makes the present situation worst than ever. Negroes were stirred up long before there was a Communist Party. And will stay stirred up long after the party has disappeared. Unless Jim Crow has disappeared by then, as well. Self - Host: [Morgan Freeman asks:] Has it?"
