Emancipated Woman, trampling under foot the laws of God in nature and revelation, so far from being a purifying and refining element in society, is herself an incarnate demon, with nothing womanly in her but the name, a creature of unbounded lust and merciless cruelty, a combination of Messalina and Lady Macbeth. -Rev. Peter Z. Easton, Does Woman represent God? (ca. 1890) |

I'd rather go down in history as one lone Negro who dared to tell the government that it had done a dastardly thing than to save my skin by taking back what I have said. I would consider it an honor to spend whatever years are necessary in prison as the one member of the race who protested, rather than be with all the 11,999,999 Negros who didn't have to go to prison because they kept their mouths shut. -Ida B. Wells-Barnett |
