Words of Wisdom In his response to no mention of African enslavement in the Declaration of Independence, who wrote: "I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that his justice cannot sleep forever"? "No more American in mournful strain/Of wrongs, and grievance unredress’d complain,/No longer shall thou dread the iron chain,/Which wanton Tyranny with lawless hand/Has made, and which it meant t’enslave the land" Many poems written by this poet described the continent of Africa and slavery. This 18th-century British religious leader founded the Methodist church. In 1774, he published a book called Thoughts Upon Slavery, … “Here are several mistakes. For 1.

A Quaker minister became a major abolitionist before the American Revolution with his publication, Some Consideration on the Keeping of Negroes….

At the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia in 1787, in response to the adoption of Article 10, Section 9, which extended the slave trade for twenty years, this person argued, “As much as I value a union of all the States, I would not admit the Southern States into the Union, unless they agree to the discontinuance of this disgraceful trade, because it brings weakness, and not strength, to the Union.” Commonwealth vs. Jennison Marquis de Lafayette Dred Scott vs. Sanford George Mason William Lloyd Garrison

  6. “I was soon put down under the decks, and there I received such a saluation in my nostrils as I had never experienced in my life: so that with the loathsomeness of the stench and crying together, I became so sick and low … I now wished for the last friend, death, to relieve me. . .” “All slaves want to be free--to be free is very sweet... I have been a slave myself - I know what slaves feel... The man that says slaves be quite happy about slavery - that they don’t want to be free - that man is either ignorant or a lying person...” "I am earnest--I will not equivocate--I will not excuse--I will not retreat an inch--AND I WILL BE HEARD.“ Name the Newspaper. Mary Prince OlaudahEquiano The North Star The Liberator Francis Ellen Watkins Harper Ed: William Lloyd Garrison

"If there is no struggle there is no progress ... This struggle may be a moral one, or it may be a physical one, and it may be both moral and physical, but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without demand. It never did and it never will." Oliver O. Howard George Moses Horton John Mercer Langston Frederick Douglass Booker T. Washington

No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; …" “Why, sir, though we are not white, we have accomplished much. We have pioneered civilization here; we have built up your country; we have worked in your fields, … And what do we ask of you in return? ... We are willing to let the dead past bury its dead; but we ask you now for our RIGHTS…” 14th Amendment Amendment of the United States Constitution Frederick Douglass 13th Amendment of the United States Constitution Henry McNeal Turner John Mercer Langston

With this force as a political element, as laborers, producers and consumers, we are an element of strength and wealth… Henry McNeal Turner P.B.S. Pinchback John Mercer Langston Frederick Douglas Booker T. Washington

  12. "We wear the mask /that grins and lies It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes. This debt we pay / to human guile with torn and bleeding hearts, / we smile, and mouths with myriad subtleties." "The wisest among my race understand that the agitation of questions of social equality is the extremist folly, and that progress in the enjoyment of all privileges that will come to us must be the result of severe and constant struggle rather than of artificial forcing." "The difference between us is very marked. Most that I have done and suffered in the service of our cause has been in public, … You, on the other hand, have labored in a private way. I have wrought in the day--you in the night. ... " Paul Lawrence Dunbar Booker T. Washington John Mercer Langston Frederick Douglas Henry McNeal Turner Said to Harriet Tubman

  13. "I can’t offer you money, position or fame. The first two you have; the last, from the place you now occupy, you will not doubt achieve. These things I now ask you to give up, I offer you in their place work-- hard, hard work--the task of bringing a people from degradation, poverty, and waste to full manhood." "Industrial education for the Negro is Booker T. Washington’s hobby. The Negro knows that now, as then, the South is strongly opposed to his learning anything else but how to work." “Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flame of withering injustice...." Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Booker T. Washington Frederick Douglas George Moses Horton Ida B. Wells-Barnett Said to George Washington Carver
