The oppressor has always indoctrinated the weak with his interpretation of the crimes of the strong.

The bondage of the Negro brought captive from Africa is one of the greatest dramas in history, and the writer who merely sees in that ordeal something to approve or condemn fails to understand the evolution of the human race.

It may be well to repeat here the saying that old men talk of what they have done, young men of what they are doing, and fools of what they expect to do. The Negro race has a rather large share of the last mentioned class.

We do not show the Negro how to overcome segregation, but we teach him how to accept it as final and just.

The different ness of races, moreover, is no evidence of superiority or of inferiority. This merely indicates that each race has certain gifts which the others do not possess.

In our so-called democracy we are accustomed to give the majority what they want rather than educate them to understand what is best for them.

At this moment, then, the Negroes must begin to do the very thing which they have been taught that they cannot do.
