PURITY OF RACE
I believe in a pure black race just as how all self-respecting whites believe in a pure white race, as far as that can be.
I am conscious of the fact that slavery brought upon us the curse of many colors within the Negro race, BUT THAT IS NO REASON WHY WE OF OURSELVES SHOULD PERPETUATE THE EVIL; hence instead of encouraging a wholesale bastardy in the race, we feel that we should now set out to create a race type and standard of our own which could not, in the future, be stigmatized by bastardy, but could be recognized and respected as the true race type anteceding even our own time.
