Looks like I better get busy!

Chapter 13 PL Notes:
Section 25
7:31 Wherever I went in the South among the new industrial and educational leaders I found an active distaste for the discussion of the Negro problem.
I hear Whenever

19:39 I’m not sure on this one, sounds awkward but probably ok. You get to decide.

Missing word - Various combustible elements were present: a sense of the appalling condition of illiteracy existing in the South; a pride and independence of character which was hurt by the gifts of money from the North; a feeling that the Negroes in some instances were getting better educational opportunities than the white children; and, finally, the splendid idealism of young men who saw clearly that the only sure foundation for democracy is universal education.

Section 26
6:43 Out of Hampton sprung Tuskegee and Calhoun and Kowaliga and scores of other Negro schools, until to-day nearly all Negro institutions for higher training in the South have industrial or agricultural departments.
I hear The Hamptons

Section 27
2:58 In our own country we have 10,000,000 Negroes distributed among 75,000,000 white people.
I hear 70 thousand million

3:46 Nor was the anti-slavery sentiment peculiar to the North; voices were raised against the institution of slavery by many Southern statesmen from Jefferson down—men who knew by familiar observation of the evil of slavery, especially for the white man.
I hear intrusion

5:44 I have tried, as I have listened to the stories of struggle which only the South knows, to put myself in the place of these Anglo-Saxon men and women, and I think I can understand a little at least of what it must have meant to meet defeat, loss of relatives and friends, grinding poverty, the chaos of reconstruction—
I hear property

22:13 Such a basis of personal prosperty is all the more dangerous because the white man is in undisputed power in this country; the Negro has no great navy behind him; he is like a child in the house of a harsh parent. All that stands between him and destruction is the ethical sense of the white man.
I hear property I believe it should be prosperity.

[Section 28 begins p.301 What Are the Remedies for the Evil Conditions?]

Outstanding work, both of you!!

Thank you both so much for your diligence and dedication. It has been a pleasure working with each of you.

Dedication? For me, it's a little work at the beginning and a little work at the end. I don't deserve that much praise.
