Black Americans Concerned About
Africa Joo
The impressive demonstrations held
last weekend in many cities around
the country in "support and
solidarity" with Africans fighting to
free southern Africa from white rule
once again effectively presented the
concern of black people here in
America for the struggle occuring in
Southern Africa.
It seems as if May 26th will be
permanently fixed on the black
political calendar as a day for massive
expressions of support for the
Southern Africa struggle. The first
such demonstration held last year
brought over 50.000 blacks to the
nation's capital. This year's effort saw
demonstrations in more than 30 cities
around the country.
Now that black concern and
committment to Africans fighting in
Southern Africa has been established,
the critical question facing the African
Liberation Support Committee
(ALSO is what kinds of
programmatic activities can be
structured and sustained across the
year.
Since the advent of the
ALSC-organized demonstrations,
African liberation organizations have
come to increasingly view blacks in
the west as an important partisan
resource for their struggle. Until the
initiative taken by the ALSC, support
for the liberation movements was
almost entirely done by white people.
This fact was a source of
puzzlement to representatives of the
movements and undermined the
rhetoric of many black leaders who
expressed concern for the southern
African struggle.
African liberation fighters have
pointed out that there is a direct
relationship between the southern
African situation and the condition of
blacks in the"0rS. An example of this
is the recent decision. of a General
Motors factory in Fremont Detroit to
"runaway" and relocate in Port
Elizabeth. South Africa where they
will pay African workers about $80 a
month.
Some .000 people, largely black,
are unemployed as a result.
America has close to $1 billion
invested in southern Africa. As this
investment rows--and it is
growing-African freedom fighters fear
American military involvement in the
area. Blacks, who make up a large
percentage of the U. S. fighting force,
could find themselves fighting their
brothers in southern Africa.
The ALSC demonstrations have
stimulated dialogue around these
concerns and others, between
representatives of the liberation
movements and black people here.
The committee will clearly have to
expand itself from being primarily a
once-a-year protestorganization to an
educational and political organization
which engages in educational
programs, is a coordinator by
boycotts, and acts as a lobby group
against America's southern Africa
policies.
An equally important role for the
committee will be working to raise the
material support the liberation
movements need to advance their
struggles.
Already the committee has begun
to move concretely in this direction.
They are pledged to have raised
$50,000 by the first of June to send
tn the movements. They have
launched a boycott against Gulf Oil,
the largest investor in
Portuguese-ruled Angola, Polaroid,
and Matuse wine-a Portuguese wine.
t The committee must begin to
define for all of us, the ways and
means by which we can meet our
responsibility to tlie struggle to
liberate southern Africa.
National Committee for A Two
Party System
The realization by more blacks to
work for a two party system in the
state of North Carolina is to
be commended.
Many of the leaders for the two
party system in North Carolina as well
as innumerable others are aware that a
viable two party system creates a
healthier political climate in not only
N. C. but in other areas as well, which
adds to the benefit of all people,
including minorities as. well. This
becomes especially true for blacks,
Indians and poor Whites in North
Carolina. In fact, no group should be
taken for granted, which has been a
sort of predictable quality for many
years in certain locales.
Several purposes and objectives
have been set up which includes the
need to educate blacks, poor whites,
and other minorities of the benefits
derived from a viable two party
system; to develop a political
educational action program on a
continuing basis thus building
minority leadership m iocu
communities throughout the State for
a more effective impact on political
parties; to coordinate a state program
and working relationship with other
organizations and minorities seeking
the same goals applicable to a
two-party system; to create and
develop leadership in fraternal, civic,
educational and social organizations
and local communities in support of
the aims and objectives through
interaction; to promote Black and
other minority candidates who seek
office on the Republican ticket
throughout the State and to offer
assistance through education and
other valid means; and to plan and
implement a massive registration
campaign throughout the State to
recruit minorities into the Republican
Party.
The positive strategies set forty
. e a a. a
appear to oe a neaimy sign mai many
are beginning to see the values of new
and stronger competitive activities in
the political arena.
Wilmington Journal Bombing
A' radio newsflash has just reported
the dynamite bombing of the
Wilmington Journal, published by T.
C. Jervay as this paper goes to press.
The Wilmington Journal has been the
voice of the oppressed in Wilmington
for many, many years, formerly
known as The Cape Fear Journal.
Although full details are not known
at this time, it still comes as a shock
to all right thinking persons that the
Strong voice that has served the black
community and others in Wilmington
since 1901 has been temporarily
interrupted, by such H 4attintty act,
It appears to be a very short sighted
view that person in attempting to
vindicate their own positions could
resort to deny to the masses of people
the most effective weapon they
havethe right to read and form their
own opinions and the right to know
for themselves, s
It is this fact, accentuated by the
criminal act itself, that makes the
bombing of the Wilmington Journal
such a dastardly deed.
The Wilmington community, the
press generally, and especially the
Black Press iit particular must rally to
the aid of the Wilmington Journal.
The voice of reason must continue to
be heard in the Wilmington
community.
If the perpetrators of this most
heinous act purport to be friends,
then the Black community certainly
docs not need enemies.

The total specifically
allotted to financial assistance
was $1,619,037.
Training programs, funded
by HEW and other agencies to
provide personnel for specific
needs, also received substantial
sums. Much of this went to
tuition and stipends for the
students involved in the
specialized programs.
Included in that category
were grants supporting an
Institute for Training in
Compensatory Education, an
Institute in Training in
Librarianship, and a Summer
Institute in Mathematics and

year and will be an even stiffer
battle for merger proponents.
The merger had been
ordered by U. S. District Judge
Robert R. Merhige Jr. on Jan.
5, 1971, when he found that
consolidation was "the only
remedy promising of
immediate success" in
integrating the Richmond
schools, which are 70 percent
black in the city and 90 per
cent white in the suburbs.
This decision was opposed
by the State and the two
suburban counties, who
appealed the order to the
Fourth U. S. Circuit Court of
Appeals, where the decision
was overturned last June bv a
5-to-l vote. The appellate
court said it was "unable to
discern any constitutional
violation" in the schools' racial
composition and, emphasizing
Judge Merhige s "concern with
what seemed to him an
unfortunate racial balance in
the three separate systems",
the court said Merhige had
exceeded his authority in
ordering the merger.
Judge Harrison L. Winter, in
a dissenting opinion from that
of the appellate court,
maintained that Virginia had
violated the 14th
Amendment's guarantee of
equal protection of. the
lawsthe basis of all school
desegregation cases since the
1954 Brown decisionsince "it
is to overall state action that
the 14th Amendment is
addressed".
The city school board and
the black plaintiffs then took
the case to the Supreme Court,
where they were overruled last
Monday.
As in the case when the
voted results in a tie, the high
court stayed with its custom of
not announcing how the
justices had divided. However,
it is very likely that the three
Nixon appointees who
participated Chief Justice '
Warren Burger and Justices
Harry Blackmun and William
H. Rehnquist voted against
the merger. On the other side,
observers speculated, were
Justices Thurgood Marshall,
William O. Douglas, and
William Brennan Jr. It is not
known how Justices Potter
Stewart and Byron R. White
voted, since each had made
encouraging statements to the
NAACP Legal Defense and
Education Fund last month.

minorities into the Republican

In line with its primary goal
of attracting more blacks into
the Republican Party, the N. C.
Chapter has laid out several
positive strategies. It hopes to
contact high school and colleg
student with an interest to
using these youths in
door-to-door canvassing and a
voter registration drive. Other
strategies include the putting
together of a comprehensive
mailing list, which includes
Black and Indian organization,
civic and social groups,
churches and other individuals,
and many other techniques.
The minority newsletter will
reflect the advancement of
minority people under
Governor Jim Holshouser.
Other materials will be
developed to portray the
Governor's commitment to
minorities.

The Church is God's appointed agency in this world lor spreading the knowledge of His love
for man and of His demand for man to respond to that love by loving his neighbor. Without
this grounding in the love of God, no government or society or way of life will long
persevere and the freedoms which we hold so dear will inevitably perish. Therefore, even
from a selfish point of view, one should support the Church for the sake of the welfare
of himself and his family. Beyond that, however, every person should uphold and par
ticipate in the Church because it tells the truth about man's life, death and destiny; the
truth which alone will set him free to live as a child of God.
