More From Theodore Roosevelt

I know black women in tennessee who have worked all their lives, from the time they were twelve years old to the day they died. these women don't listen to the women's liberation rhetoric because they know that it's nothing but a bunch of white women who had certain life-styles and who want to change those life-styles.
