Hi,
I am reading a novel, and came across the following lines. Could you please help me with understanding of the underlined line?
If we were a people much given to revealing secrets, we might raise monuments and sacrifice to the memories of our poets, but slavery cured us of that weakness. It may be enough, however, to have it said that we survive in exact relationship to the dedication of our poets (include preachers, musicians and blues singers).
Regards,
Kiran
