"Some years ago, after the disappearance of civil rights workers Chaney, Goodman, and Schwirner in Mississippi, some friends of mine were dragging the rivers for their bodies. This one wasn't Schwirner. This one wasn't Goodman. This one wasn't Chaney. Then, as Dave Dennis tells it, "It suddenly struck us--what difference did it make that it wasn't them? What are these bodies doing in the river?" That was nineteen years ago. The questions has not been answered, and I dare you to go digging in the bayou. --James Baldwin, The Evidence of Things Not Seen, 1985"
