Actually Since The Convention I Have Gotten

I Went Almost Naked To See That My Mother Was Kept Decent And Treated As A Human Being For The First Time In All Of Her Life.

If I Am Truly Free, Who Can Tell Me How Much Of My Freedom I Can Have Today?

I See So Many Ways America Uses To Rob Negroes And It Is Sinful And America Can't Keep Holding On, And Doing These Things.

We Worked All The Time, Just Worked And Then We Would Be Hungry And My Mother Was Clearing Up A New Ground Trying To Help Feed Us For $1.25 A Day. She Was Using An Axe, Just Like A Man, And Something Flew Up And Hit Her In Her Eye. It Eventually Caused Her To Lose Both Of Her Eyes And I Began To Get Sicker And Sicker Of The System There. I Used To See My Mother Wear Clothes That Would Have So Many Patches On Them, They Had Been Done Over And Over And Over Again. She Would Do That But She Would Try To Keep Us Decent.

It's Time For America To Get Right.
