Mary Church Terrell Quote
Lifting as we climb, onward and upward we go, struggling and striving and hoping that the buds and blossoms of our desires will burst into glorious fruition ere long.... Seeking no favors because of our color nor patronage because of our needs, we knock at the bar of justice and ask for an equal chance.
What Role Is the Educated Negro Woman to Play in the Uplifting of Her Race? [1902]
