Answer:

An illness

Step-by-step explanation:

"Notes of a Native Son" is a collection of essays by James Baldwin. The volume contains ten of these, all non-fiction. The book is regarded as a classic of American literature, and in particular, of African American literature. The author discusses topics that are relevant to this group in the United States, such as racism and inequality. One of Baldwin's most powerful ideas is the fact that he compares hatred to an illness: equally powerful and damaging.
