Then we went over to the Public

argued for greater Indignation in

Vested Interest - Negro
What became OF this idealt
Few friends, less money the
influence Of segregation laws that
began to infest the Southern
States Negroes themselves
sometimes fostered the movement
toward racial bias in order to be
sure OF one center OF higher learn

"Prejudices and segregation
