• God speed the day when the negro must be led to
  know and through sympathy to confess that his
  interests and the interests of the people of the
  South are identicalBut the supremacy of the
  white race of the South must be maintained
  forever, and the domination of the negro race
  resisted at all points and at all hazardsbecause
  the white race is the superior race.
• Quote by Henry Grady, 1887
