Fannie Barrier Williams, "The Colored Girl"

Fannie Barrier Williams states in her article "The Colored Girl",

 “The way to exalt the colored girl is to place a higher premium on character than we do upon the quality of her occupation. A fine girl is the supreme thing. Let her be loved, admired, encouraged, and above all things heroically protected against the scorn and contempt of men, black as well as white.”
