Supreme Court Poised to Roll Back Even More of the Progress Blacks Have Made in the U.S. in the Last Half Century

9. as my old friend, Guy Washington used to say

..."good always leaves, but bad comes to stay."

I think our challenge right now is in making the rest of American recognize that many of the rights and benefits they enjoy stem from the advancement of civil rights for blacks and others - and that, as Lincoln remarked, 'grow accustomed to trampling others' rights, and you've lost the genius of your own independence and become fit subjects of the first cunning tyrant who rises among you.'

We still exist, and we'll never stop defending and demanding our rights. Take every strength you can manage from that truth.
