“The present relationship existing between husband and wife, where one claims a command over the actions of the other, is nothing more than a remnant of the old leaven of slavery. It is necessarily destructive of refined love; for how can a man continue to regard as his type of the ideal a being whom he has, be denying an equality of privilege with himself, degraded to something below himself?” MenActionMarriageWifeTypeHusbandIdealsClaimsRegardSlaveryPrivilegeCommandDestructiveHusband And WifeRefinedRemnants Book:An Autobiography: By Herbert Spencer Source: An Autobiography: By Herbert Spencer

“Frankly, Django is an American story that needs to be told, when you think of slavery existing in this country for 245 years.
