“No greater injury can be done to any youth
than to let him feel that because he belongs
to this or that race he will be advanced in life
regardless of his own merits or efforts.”

“There is a class of colored people who make a
business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs,
and the hardships of the Negro race before
the public.
Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.
There is a certain class of race-problem solvers
who don’t want the patient to get well.”
