Excerpt from The Twentieth Century Union League Directory: A Compilation of the Efforts of the Colored People of Washington for Social Betterment
This work was undertaken with the hope that its publication would stimulate the desire to Study, as well as Discuss, the Race Problem, and that like investigations would be made in other cities.
It is only the strongest and most progressive few of any race who can be pioneers. The masses of all races are "Lead" to attempt only what they see persons of their own kind doing. If the Colored Race, in the first generation of Freedom has produced a number of successful men and women in any community, no better service to the race can be done at this dark hour, than to throw the light upon them. The real Leaders of the race are those who Lead in doing.
