We need to understand it has been a scar on the nation whether you are black or white or Latino. The refusal of this nation to come to grips with the role of race in policy making, in economic strategy, is holding this nation back and will take it down.

The combination of it always hanging on your neck, that you have to go raise more money and the reality that it’s going to small amounts is enough to discourage anybody but I think all of us who are in the business have made the decision to just put that aside as something we’re not going to let discourage us."
