24 ~od from the Editor (Continued from pa!!.e 1) white people blameless, eith er. "There is no doubt in my mind that most whites con sider us inferior, eren 111(11)' sincere and well meaning people." And that, too. unfortunately, is TR UE! Notice, he puts his finger on the CON DITION. T aug ht to Hate This fast-spreadin g hatred in Negro hearts for whites is A RECENT THIN G - just since ( N OT BEFORE ) the Civil Righ ts Movement began to gain many advantages for Negroes . That is true and it is a DANGER that threatens the very future of Ame rica and other countries - tha t threatens to totally D EFEAT everythin g honest Negroes arc wor king for, and turn ou r society into anarchy ! Because it is sp readi ng ! And I will tell you what's back of it ! N egroes are being inflamed. They arc being emot ionally stirred up to HATE - and in a growing number being incited to PLUNDER and K ILL! With whites it is d ifferent . AnJ I don 't mean the white people are more righteous. But the ATTITUDE IS DIFFER ENT. Actually , I think most white people have felt great sympathy for the N egro cause, and have wanted to see these wrongs righted - as long , that is, as it did not affect them personally. They have not been roused to an emotional HATE against Negroes. Perh aps a few, in certain communi ties where there has been strife and violence, may have been. But not as a whol e. But the whit e peopl e arc by no means guiltless. Theirs is not a sudden emotional resentment that flares into ange red ST RIF E and VIO LENCE. It is the more PASSIVE - and often UNREA LIZEDfeeli ng that Negroes are an inferior race - jmt became of the color of their skin ! T HAT CONCEPT IS NOT T HE TRUTH! Let's sober down the emotional resentments, and OPEN our prejudiced m inds to THE TRUE FACT S. First, let's review what has actually Th , PLAIN TR UTH happened - especially these past three to ten years. Then I want to give you some hard facts most of hoth races do not realize. White peop le need to realize that, of all injustices and deprivation of " rights," perhaps the most resented in Negro hearts is being regarded as INFERIOR because his skin is black. I have known many Southern white people who have tried to be kind, conside r ate, and, in their OWl1 mind, entirely fair toward N egroes. What they did not seem even to realize was that they conside red Negroes INFERIOR. They talked dou-r to them, even though kind ly, as to a child. Fifty-seven y
November, 1968 Jems and thei r causes than world leaders exem pli fy now. Look, now, at these sudden emotional flare-ups of studen t revolt and of race conscious ness, prej udice, resentments and hatreds. WHY the sudden inflaming of stude nt rebelli on ? WilY have both exploded into VIOLENCE ? Twin Ca uses For these dual outbursts there arc twin CAUSES. They are underlying causes, rooted in human nature, unrecognized even by the psychologists. Th ere also is the immediate cause, apparent ly little realized by government leaders or by the public. Nothing is more needful for our readers, right now, than a crystal-clear UNOERST....NDING of this enti re tinderbox situation . It can violently affect YOUR life at any unexpected moment ! The Itl1de rlying cause is, simp ly, HUMAN NATURE. And that is something that even the psychologists do nor und erstand as well as they themselves suppose. H uman natu re is the tinderbox. The immediate cause is the fusc, or the spark, that sets off the exp losion. What does human nature have to do with it? \'
