If one really wishes to know how justice is administered in a country

If one really wishes to know how justice is administered in a country, one does not question the policemen, the lawyers, the judges, or the protected members of the middle class. One goes to the unprotected – those, precisely, who need the law's protection most! – and listens to their testimony.

– James Baldwin, African-American Author, "No Name in the Street"
