Let me be a free man, free to travel, free to stop, free to work, free to trade. . . . where I choose my own teachers, free to follow the religion of my fathers, free to think and talk and act for myself, and I will obey every law, or submit to the penalty.

I claim a right to live on my land and accord you the privilege to live on yours.
