If that boy was colored he’d be washing dishes somewhere  (Annie Elizabeth Delany Quotes) I am a colored woman or a Negro woman. Either one is OK. People dislike those words now. Today these use this term African American. It wouldn’t occur to me to use that. I prefer to think of myself as an American, that’s all!  (Annie Elizabeth Delany Quotes) It always seemed to me that white people were judged as individuals.

I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. Turning 101 was not so bad. Once you’re past that century mark, it’s just not as shocking  (Annie Elizabeth Delany Quotes) Ain’t nobody going to censor me, no, sir!
