My attention is called first to the proclamation of the honorable Mr . Dan H. Brown, The 2nd, President of this Congress, requesting all members of the Christian Congress to join in appealing to God, for His blessing and guidance for all mankind, and for a new birth of freedom and peace in our beloved America. I have given this proclamation a careful study trying to comprehend its full meaning . If and when these words are translated into action through the Congress of Christian States of America, we can truly say the new birth of America is here . For forty (40) years, since 1928, we have traveled the length and breadth of America ; from the Atlantic to the Pacific ; and have used every available means of communication to warn Americans, black and white, against this day. We have urged 100 per cent cooperation between black and white Americans to prevent the destruction of this nation from within . We warned Americans both black and white that integration has destroyed every nation that tolerated such folly ; and that America would be no exception to the rule. This prediction was fulfilled from 1965 through 1967 when violence broke out from Maine to Florida ; and from New York to California for self-determination . Ladies and gentlemen, it cannot 8 (Statements to Congress of Christian States, White Society of America by Bishop Addison 286 LENOX AVENUE 124 & 125 St . African Botique "WHY AM I HERE" be gotten through forced integration ; nor by freedom rides and marches. Public prayers have not served the purpose intended and singing God's praises in the streets have not solved the problems. This is concrete proof where integration leads. We, of the African Universal Church and Commercial League Corporation, havewarned White America that passage of various Civil Rights Bills will lower "America" into her already open grave. We warned Black America the passage could only be a strong barbiturate to keep the black man peacefully sleeping while your so-called "friends" bury your so-called "White Enemies" and enslave you and your chldren's children for generations to come . The so-called poor people's campaign was proof that although the masses of people watch them plunge into the gulf of destruction, they continue to march in the same direction . These endeavors are sinking America, both white and black . We should want to know from whence cometh the money to support these evils since we are taxed on every hand . How long can we survive if the people continue along these lines. In order to be free all people had to sponsor a threefold program : the Black Man is no exception to the rule.

Then and only then will we be free and equal with other men. The black man must pay the same price, to satisfy his thirst for freedom . This is the danger that drives me to my feet! How can we sleep in a time like this? We must prevent this destruction of a nation that came into being by God's Grace. We cannot allow white or black to drift along unthinkingly toward this great gulf of danger. It is because of this that "I AM HERE" and now calling upon the soul and mind of White and Black America for 100 per cent cooperation, so together we can save America for the white, and all who wish to retain their stay, and build Africa for all who wish to return. This work must be done, and it must be started now. There are whites as well as blacks who have not understood the plan of the A.U.C. & C.L .
