Quote Right
Quote Left Whoever has inhabited the United States must have perceived that in those parts of the Union in which the Negroes are no longer slaves the have in no wise drawn nearer to the whites.

Member Quotes About Whites

Quote Left We know little about the value of money. We know cigarettes used to be a dollar fifty. Now they are averaging six fifty a pack. We know gas has seen a similar trend going up in prices as well as honey buns and gum. We know the prices are always increasing and the meaning of a dollar is in flux. We know that women still get paid about 25% less than men when doing the same tasks, and minorities see almost 40% less than whites. It seems the value of money takes skin color and gender into account." Quote Right
