It is a peculiar sensation…this sense of always looking at one’s self through the eyes of others…of measuring one’s soul by the tape of a world that looks on in amused contempt and pity. One ever feels the many-ness,—an American, a Negro---An African, A slave--A northerner, A southerner---at
least three souls, three thoughts, three unreconciled strivings; three warring ideals in one dark body, that would all be put on display at the Buffalo Pan-American Exposition and …which is more, their collective presence could water the
seeds for disassociation within the African-American community.
