Accomplish goals \ ? ^ ou are a well-organized person when you avoid the \ habit of letting tasks hang over you and when you take .1 delight in keeping your daily duties cleared up. vt Keeping duties ahead will enable you to turn your mind freely to the next piece of work that lies before you. Often we allow tasks to hang over us for days at a time, tasks that we could do in a short time if we would only Naomi's View ? NAOMI ZZ Mclean i - * * taxe tne preliminary steps to make a start. After we once get at a task, we usually find that it is less demanding than we thought it would be and as work progresses, problems disappear.

Given our limited resources, we should be involved in campaigns which build the black movement and progressive coalitions. The candidate who comes closest to accomplishing these strategic goals is "the Country Preacher," Jesse Jackson. Unlike Cranston or Mondale, Jackson recognizes that the cutting edge of white conservatism is racism -- attacks on affirmative action, civil rights and economic opportunities for people of color. Only Jackson calls for an economic program which calls forthe total restoration of the 1981-84 budget cuts, tax increases on the corporations and massive public works programs. millllHIItlllltMUIIHIimillMtMHMIItlllillllllMHIINIIIIIIIMHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIII Blacks and Jews Frorr MHMMttltlllllltltlMHIIIIIIIIIIttllMtlltlltlllllltltlllllltlllltlllllllltttlltlllllllllltlllMHtttlllll One area in which the climate has changed tremendously is in politics. A prominent local African-American this week suggested that the political landscape has been transformed so handsomely for blacks that things will never be the same again. African-Americans have gotten a real last of what it's like to be a real winner for a change. Philadelphia and Chicago are living testimony to that Ypt Afrioan-Amprii?an? arp not a nporslp to foiopt their friends. Jews and African-Americans have some serious disagreement over quotas being used as an important tool to achieve certain affirmative action goals in the workplace and college and professional school admissions and other areas. As quotas stand, both communities have agreed to disagree. Another area of pressing concern is the presidential luiMNiiitiitmimimiiimiiiimtiiiiimiimiiiiMiiiiimitiiiiiiiimiiMiiiiiiiiitiiittMiiiiiiiM Letters From Page A4 pie can do just what they want to do." I know that Winston-Salem State University and other traditionally black institutions issued us a carte b/anc card that opened doors to employment, additional education, fraternites, sororities and other opportunities. I sleep well at night, for 1 try to contribute both talent and money. If our institutions close tomorrow, it is our fault, for it is time that we pay our own way.

He allows that task to "hang" for several days. He subscOnsciously thinks it will take more time than he can give it now, or makes himself feel that he doesn't know just how to begin and wants to think it over. Days pass by before actual work begins. Plan it out; put it through. When we start on a journe> that has a particular destination, we all know that it certainly does make sense to set up an itinerary. The test of any plan, of course, lies in how it works. Activating a plan calls for common sense, adaptation to circumstances and the ability to meet special requirements. Putting a plan through calls for, we might say, a master of detail. Naturally, a person who makes the plan knows better how to master the plan in detail because, from the beginning, he had in mind w hat was to be done.

Clifton Craves is affirmative action officer at WinstonSalem State University. londale From Page A4 Jackson's race will probably increase the number of blacks who will run for local and statewide office, and will strengthen the potential progressive bloc to undermine the Right. Local "Jackson-for-President" coalitions of national minorities, feminists, environmentalists and other groups could survive the 1984 campaign as progressive, multiracial, united fronts. The problem with Mondale is that black support for him at the present time does absolutely nothing to expand the electorate, nor does it qualitatively advance our own interests. The best way to reverse Reaganism is to back, Jesse Jackson. Dr. Manning Marable teaches political sociology at ?Colgate University in Hamilton? /V.

African-Americans are ecstatic in their support of Jackson, while many Jewish organizations appear just the opposite because of Jackson's meeting with Yasir Arafat of the Palestine Liberation Organization. Although Jackson has repeatedl> voiced his support for a strong Israel, out Jewish friends still express set ious doubts, as evident by a lengthy analysis in the Friday (Jan. 13) edition of the Jewish Exponent. Whether it's the question of affirmative action, common economic interests or Jesse Jackson's candidacy, African-Americans and Jews must begin a serious dialogue to find means of resolving our differences before we drift beyond the point of no return. This newspaper is open to suggestions from everyone in both the black and Jewish communities on how this dialogue may begin. It is crucial that we continue to talk to each other in a sensible manner, seeking wa>s of cementing ties on issues of common interests to both \ communities.
