The Power Within the Without
...It remains a fact which cannot be gainsaid that in his own native home, and generally throughout the world, the unfortunate Negro is indeed the meanest of slaves. Much had been said respecting the inferiority of his intellectual powers, and that no man of his race has ever inscribed his name on the Parthenon of human excellence, either mental or moral. However, beware of his Godly gift, for his power in his seed can breed out a nation unto his own. As it was in the beginning, so shall it be in the ending (Dr Clarence Rucker, Jr)
