Ida B. Wells. Can someone explain this quote please? |
|
Maybe I've been up too long but what did she mean?
Wells held strong political opinions and she upset many people with her views on women's rights. When she was 24, she wrote, "I will not begin at this late day by doing what my soul abhors; sugaring men, weak deceitful creatures, with flattery to retain them as escorts or to gratify a revenge."
