Description

Sheet music cover "GWINE TO CHANGE DAT WHITE HOUSE BLACK". Cover art depicts a line of caricatured African Americans in elegant clothing heading to the White House with buckets of black paint.

May be satire of President Theodore Roosevelt inviting African American educator Booker T. Washington to visit him at the White House in 1901, which was objected to by segregationists at the time.
