James Baldwin - Not everything that is faced can be changed; but nothing can be changed until it is faced.
Not everything that is faced can be changed; but nothing can be changed until it is faced. The principal fact that we must now face, and that a handful of writers are trying to dramatize, is that the time has now come for us to turn our backs forever on the big two-hearted river.
James Baldwin's quote, 'Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced,' originated from his 1962 New York Times Book Review article 'As Much Truth as One Can Bear.' The quote was widely shared on social media in 2024, coinciding with the 100th anniversary of Baldwin's birth.
