帕布莉卡“So many black families spend all of their time trying to fix the problems of the past. That is the curse of being black and poor, and it is a curse that follows you from generation to generation. My mother calls it “the black tax.” Because the generations who came before you have been pillaged, rather than being free to use your skills and education to move forward, you lose everything just trying to bring everyone behind you back up to zero. ”
《Born a Crime》—Trevor Noah

“很多黑人家庭把他们所有的时间都花在解决过去的问题上。这就是黑人和穷人的诅咒，这是一种诅咒，伴随着你一代又一代。我母亲称之为“黑人税”，因为在你之前的几代人都被掠夺了，而不是自由地利用你的技能和教育向前发展，你失去了一切，只是想让你身后的人回到零。”
