Nothing has changed! There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned they can make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs, partly because they want sympathy, and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro people to lose their grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.---Booker T. Washington 1911.
