Library of Congress YouTube Channel

The Library of Congress has uploaded hundreds of historical videos of New York City to their YouTube channel. This one is of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Parade down Fifth Avenue. It was taken in 1902. Kind of fun to watch these old videos!

"I don't want pity. To pity me is to make me a victim. I want understanding. To understand me is to love me as an equal."
"I don't want tolerance. If I am tolerated, I am disliked in some way. I want respect as a fellow striving citizen of the world - an equal in this world."
"I don't want acceptance. To accept me is to graciously grant me the favor of your company. To accept me is to marginalize me with the assumption that I am less than you. I am your peer. I am neither above you nor below you."
