“These Negroes, they're getting pretty uppity these days and that's a problem for us since they've got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness.

The quote originates from one book that offered zero evidence of it being said.
Publishers would not have published it if it were not corroborated.
Look how desperate you are not to believe the truth.
You can see the quote on page 955 with your own eyes.
