What evil, what wickedness to take the lives of so many, black adults, who had fallen prey to the worst racism rampant in the USA of the time and were seeking their own nirvana, Christian socialists who were looking for a new social order after the rapaciousness and greed they rejected at home, or simply the atheist-minded, who might have been disheartened by the word Church, but accepted a temple, single men and women who were looking for a purpose following a broken romance and who began to direct their energies into the construction of this paradise, and finally those innocuous children, who had probably sipped fruit juice ingenuously those past three humid summers and who never knew the evil that abounds in those who profess outwardly the purest of motives.
