Louisville Courier v_n Journal, member of the Executive u?Hoard of Fight For Freedom, Inc. a- Pulitzer Prize historian, etc.) le r3 In discussing: the position ofth< a American Negro in relation to th< h- threat of a totalitarian, world, wi s_ Americans have no grounds fo in pride in our general treatment o the Negro. Honest Americans mus agree that this country has nevei ig given its Negro citizens anything at like n full measure orf the right; and privileges Of" a democracy r. Under ^ueh-eircumstance?j it "woufc >d not be surprising for some Negro iy es to* feel that their race owes les e- obligation to defend our way o1 government than the majority f. group that has enjoyed Its bene is fits. i- But intelligent Negroe? them selves know well how incomparab?r ly worse their lot would be under is any government dominated by the al Nazi doctrines of racial superiora ity. On tihe score I can do no bet. d ter than quote here from one of le the articles of Mr. David H. Brad_ ford, a Negro and n weekly con i-.itributor to the Louisville Courierit [journal. ? s , "One of the cardinal principles s. of the system created by Hitler," n | Mr. Bradford says, "is race prcy . judice, and no one needs to be d I clairvoyant to know upon whose s back the lash of racial prejudice * \ % ? ? ?? ? >t i nnn discrimination would fall moat ir hoavily in America. All of the e Negro's aspirations for a more !- complete life would be thwarted. ? Hi9 children would be taught only d conformity in the schools; and a is controlled press would put n rn zor in the hand and a bottle in the ie pocket of every Negro, e "All honest Americans admit, i- some openly and boldly, others in e the quiet recesses erf their own minds, that.ihe.atr.tUs of the Ne: *- pro in America is the lowest of ( any racial group in .our land. ! Abundant evidence is available to j support this fact. Progress has {been and is being made, but in I some, fields., the distance between hi,; status now and the status of the majority group is as wide as s it wre three quarters of a century e ago. | ? l "Hut with all this lord to carry, ^ i * hp democratic Christian U.

The Hill of Rights and A?the?brotherhood of man?are still L | talked about as desirable goals. f?The terms liberty. equality and ap-' a portunitv are still respected in our , midst and some day we can hope to attain them.
