Listening to a podcast episode about Robert Smalls; hoping, in this moment, that we can be even a fraction as brave as he was.
Quote from Smalls 1895 speech: “My race needs no special defense, for the past history of them in this country proves them to be equal of any people anywhere. All they need is an equal chance in the battle of life.”
