April 1, 1906 — Equal Suffrage League of Brooklyn, National Association of Colored Women, Bridge Street A.M.E. Church, New York City

She contributed her work, but while I would not attempt to try to underage her work, there is almost as much work to-day as there was fifty or sixty years ago. In many States colored men are deprived of their right to vote and are held as slaves in peonage.
