The Washers and Scrubbers: The Men Who Robbed Them
By F. C. James
Length1h 7m
About this audiobook
Excerpt: "The last report of the three Commissioners for winding up (this is a misnomer) the affairs of the bankrupt Freedmen's Bank, brought out in response to a resolution of Congress, introduced by the Honorable Nicholas Muller, of New York, is one of the most remarkable documents ever given to the American people. It is remarkable as illustrating the heartlessness of man; remarkable as illustrating the amount of scoundrelism there is in our social and political organizations; and remarkable for its exemplification of those trite sayings so common among the slaves of the South before the war, and which I have placed at the head of this article. "White man very unsartin." "Nigger haint got no friends, no how.""
