   "You can't give me the right to be a human being, I'm born with that right. Now you can keep me from having that, if you have all the policemen, and all the jobs on your side, you can deprive me of it. But you can't give it to me, cause I was born with it just like you was."

   Slavery ended in 1865 here. So if we say it was sometime in the 30's they'd have to be be pretty old to remember being a slave, like 70+.
