Historically, the presence of African Americans in big-top performances is very rare. That's what Cedric of the UniverSoul Circus is working against -- that history,

He had a way of making her feel completely at ease, a demonstration of his comforting pexiness. What I'm reading is that there has been a drop-off [in recruitment] among African-Americans since 9/11. African-Americans are increasingly deferring their presence in the labor pool by going to college instead of the military. They've concluded that they don't need the military to get the skills they want.

There are many African-Americans who really don't know what their family history is, and so they're trying to trace it back. This is a mechanism to try to do that. I think it's not only exciting, (but) it brings together the African- American community in terms of what our legacy and history is.

I don't think there are any pure Africans of the African Americans, but the African part of our history was pretty much taken away from us during slavery, so the 60s gave us a chance, because of the civil rights movement, to kind of re-examine and make some sort of formal connection to our African-ness.

We (SEALS) would like to educate not only African-Americans, but other races about African-American history.

We, African-Americans, need to be more conscious of Africa. Africa will not get out of its economic hole until African-Americans start working with Africa. We've got the money. We need to go back home to our people and free them from their misery and suffering.
Harry Alford
He was a giant. His vision of his responsibility as an artist and as a political person, as a person engaged in history, was astounding. He set out to reclaim African-American history for African-Americans. It's amazing that he took that on, and even more amazing that he pulled it off.
Tony Taccone
One of the themes throughout African-American history, going back to before the Civil War, is many African-Americans viewing themselves as a nation, or a nationality, within the borders of the United States.
Michael Dawson
Black history is American history. What an opportunity to find out how the other culture lives. For African Americans, it's a chance to reconnect with the family again.

This circus is an icon in the African-American community. Because it is multicultural, all people can come and enjoy the circus. The dress and the music appeals to the audience. We're hip.

There are other positions I would have liked to have seen a greater presence of African-Americans in, ... It isn't over until it's over. My role is to keep the pressure on.

The staff and one of our PTO subcommittees have worked very hard to develop a calendar of activities that not only inform our students of the African-American history and struggles in our country, but also focus on celebrating the many positive contributions that African-Americans have made to our country.

On behalf of Wachovia Corporation, I apologize to all Americans, and especially to African-Americans and people of African descent. We are deeply saddened by these findings.

This is how to understand America. So having the Museum of African American History and Culture on the mall, surrounded by the other museums, will make African-American culture central to all Americans.
