Booker T. Washington: “This lesson I have tried to carry with me ever since.”

I knew that if we failed it would injure the whole race.

She was simply a victim of the system of slavery.

I do not know how many have noticed it, but I think that it will be found to be true that there are few instances, either in slavery or freedom, in which a member of my race has been known to betray a specific trust.

I have great faith in the power and influence of facts.
