Random Quote

In point of residential rights and privileges in the city of Washington, all Americans are created equal…the rights and immunities of the National Capital are no longer limited by reason of race, color or previous condition of servitude…No American is now too black to call Washington his home and no American is so mean as to deny him that right.

— Frederick Douglass, 1875
