I wanted to remove the hurt and frustration that Kenny felt, that I could hear so clearly through the phone, but I neither had the will nor the ability to lie to him about the mightiness of American racism.
Volia treure-li a en Kenny el dolor i la frustració que sentia, que jo notava clarament per telèfon, però ni volia ni podia enganyar-lo sobre la magnitud del racisme americà.
