"Saya adalah anak kelima dalam keluarga enam, lima laki-laki dan satu perempuan. Berkatilah gadis malang itu. Kami sangat miskin; itu 30-an. Kami selamat dari makanan dan pekerjaan kecil yang bisa dilakukan ayah saya di jalan atau apa pun yang disediakan WPA. Kami selalu mengantri untuk mendapatkan makanan. Kelangsungan hidup keluarga kami benar-benar tergantung pada kelangsungan hidup keluarga kulit hitam lainnya di komunitas itu. Kami memiliki aspek desa tentang kami, perasaan Afrika tentang kami. Kami selalu berbagi apa yang kami miliki satu sama lain. Kami dapat membuatnya karena benar-benar ada keluarga, desa."

--- Cecil Williams

Versi Bahasa Inggris

I was the fifth child in a family of six, five boys and one girl. Bless that poor girl. We were very poor; it was the 30s. We survived off of the food and the little work that my father could get working on the roads or whatever the WPA provided. We were always in line to get food. The survival of our family really depended on the survival of the other black families in that community. We had that village aspect about us, that African sense about us. We always shared what we had with each other. We were able to make it because there was really a total family, a village.
