... Today, over 300,000 black young men are in prison.
Black males suffer over two million arrests every year in

young black males -- and, in turn, the obliteration of our
communities?
" Conference participant Dr. W. Monty Whitney,
associate director of the Cincinnati Seven Hills
Neighborhood Houses, suggested that the basic "factors
which inhibit healthy relationships are racism, sexism and
capitalism." Short-term strategies to address these problems
included greater "racial awareness," changing
"male-female socialization patterns," and improving
} "communication and accountability" between black men
and women. Dr. Na'im Akbar, a Florida State professor
of psychology, urged blacks to combat the institutions
,and ideologies which "work against both our individual
., and collective survival." The 4Must for power," material
possessions and sexuality must be replaced by "a genuine
commitment to one's being rooted in the knowledge of

Why support Jackso
? )? ?
to support this presidential movement: "If you must
- criticize (Jackson), by all means do it in the spirit of love
and unity."
The points worthy of note in this presentation are
(l)there is the potential of registering millions of new
voters and involving them in the political process for the
first time; (2)the political awareness of young blacks can
potentially be raised to a higher level; (3)the black church
now has the opportunity to be an integral part of the
reshaping of political consciousness; (4)freedom, justice
and equality can again be placed on the front burner of
the American conscience; (5)let us keep criticism of the
Jackson candidacy poAive; and (6)Jackson has the abili
ty to pull together the diverse segments of our society.

When 1 walk around these streets and hear brothers
calling brothers "niggers," it makes me see a lack of intelligence
in the black society. 1 looked in a dictionary
and the definition it gave for the word "nigger" was an
unfriendly way to mean Negro. We all know that a "nigv
ger" is an ignorant person.
Black people need to wake up and shjft into the fast
lane and get out of that slow lane. They need to practice
t he meaning, of brotherhood. If you think you can't,
you will.

Professor Angelene Jamison, head of Black Studies at
the University of Cincinnati, suggested that "black
women and men have accepted and internalized many of
the myths, stereotypes, roles and definitions established
by whites. Because we have not clearly understood these I
outside forces on male-female relationships," blacks

establish creative and productive ways of dealing with
them/*
"Black survival," in Dr. Jamison's words, depends
upon the creation of a "meaningful dialogue" between
black women and men, and in efforts to build more
"healthy and supportive relationships in the black community."
This conference was a decisive step forward in
that long process.

of Jackson's open-arms attitude.)
Too many doubting Thomases in the black community
will only serve to retard the potential to the black electorate
and throw cold water on the unrealized aspirations
of thousands of young, poor and previously uninvolved
blacks. Why one would elect to follow the course of
retardation remains to be seen.
What can be seen is that Jackson's campaign; which
has, according to some polls, brought him to the noint of
tying with Sen. John Glenn for second place in the race,
makes him a serious contender for having a major impact
on the 1984 presidential campaign.
Blacks who would stand in the way of this movement
must have genuine explanations with nobler motives.

learn how to cope with reality and the society they live in.
Reputations are made by searching for things that normally
can't be done and doing them. If we can get more
black people to stick together, I believe it would be a
great accomplishment. Aim high and make people greatful
for what you will be doing.
No one can do it by themselves. Let's everyone try to
do something. B*cn the little things count. Let's try to get
