"I believe in Liberty for all men; the space to stretch
their arms and their souls;
the right to breathe and the right to vote, the freedom to choose their friends,
enjoy the sunshine and ride on the railroads, uncursed by color; thinking,
dreaming, working as they will in a kingdom of God and love." The Souls of Black Folk
(1903)
