Ida B. Wells Quotes

The Miscegenation Laws Of The South Only Operate Against The Legitimate Union Of The Races; They Leave The White Man Free To Seduce All The Colored Girls He Can, But It Is Death To The Colored Man Who Yields To The Force And Advances Of A Similar Attraction In White Women. White Men Lynch The Offending Afro-American, Not Because He Is A Despoiler Of Virtue, But Because He Succumbs To The Smiles Of White Women.
