Covert Classroom, c. 1950
"The stripes upon our national banner differ
in color as do the races in this county, but they are equal in length
and exact in width, which aught to mean in this country, equal rights,
equal opportunity, and equal protection for all, regardless of race,
color, or previous condition."
.............. -Speech
given at Covert's Emanciaption festival in 1895.
