I Am Sick And Tired Of Being

A Black Woman's Body Was Never Hers Alone.

No. What Would I Look Like Fighting For Equality With The White Man? I Don't Want To Go Down That Low. I Want The True Democracy That'll Raise Me And That White Man Up Raise America Up.

You Can Tell This By The Program The Federal Government Had To Train 2,400 Tractor Drivers. They Would Have Trained Negro And White Together, But This Man, Congressman Jamie Whitten, Voted Against It And Everything That Was Decent. So, We've Got To Have Somebody In Washington Who Is Concerned About The People Of Mississippi.

It Is Only When We Speak What Is Right That We Stand A Chance At Night Of Being Blown To Bits In Our Homes. Can We Call This A Free Country, When I Am Afraid To Go To Sleep In My Own Home In Mississippi?... I Might Not Live Two Hours After I Get Back Home, But I Want To Be A Part Of Setting The Negro Free In Mississippi.

Never To Forget Where We Came From And Always Praise The Bridges That Carried Us Over.
