“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.”
- Booker T. Washington
Thank you. I’ve actually been looking for that quote!
