I can't believe it. We lost. I don't know how this could have happened. We had such great arguments so how did we loose 7 to 1? The majority opinion was written by Justice Henry Brown. He said that the purpose of the 14th amendment was to give equal rights to the two races, it was not made to enforce social rights. Justice Harlan wrote the dissenting opinion. He said "separate but equal" wouldn't fool him, or make up for the wrong doing this day. Justice Harlan is right, it's not fooling anyone. But don't worry this is not the end. We will fight for our freedom, no matter how long it takes.
