QUOTE OF THE WEEK

"We claim for ourselves every single right that belongs to a freeborn American, political, civil, and social; and until we get these rights we will never cease to protest and assail the ears of America. The battle we wage is not for ourselves alone but for all true Americans."

-- Manifesto of the Niagara Movement, which led to the founding of the NAACP in 1909
