S., made public Maid', i, 1968, became the subiert of still another re port last week, called “One Year Later.” The new- report, produced joint! hv the \..'.. Coalition, anti me l: u, \- rr.erica, Inc., tw independent non-profit organizations, as sessed the nation’s response to the crisis described it the Kerner Report, and fount; it still wanting. No one denies»the o ru h the crisis of oui cities, :.o do the', dsn; 5 “lie role' ... < <>? the Kerner 1 “port t m " i issues Mocking implement ttio: of the recommendations ant: or other corrective pin t j . seem to be twofold--nolh it - and racism. Part of the blame .ust attributed to fori. . i ; • • sidetu Johnson. H“ Pinplaneled tl <■ r n isio to write t!.e "poi" c civil disorders after several summei s of nh : * . ’• a •' ■ action was mor-* political, de signed to appease d •• n ai s an : angers of whites, t ! an to tell any truths. Consequently President Johnson tie.ite- t : report and its reconuueudai ion: as if they were unwanted step children. The ’general itttl that followed seemed to i)e, “. . . if the President doesn’t care, why should we?” President Johnson ,tl o, 1" tie abdication of the intention m seek re-election, and ’■■. in.- concentration on ending tl • " • in Vietnam, set ■: e pact in responding, or failing to re - spond to the >ecoimnen-l >• i**. of the report. The issue of racism v. .. clearly outlined and discussed In the commission’s report, in terms of its hlstoiy, develu; ment, and ramifications. The significant change in one year has been an intensification of feelings brought on !■■■ the as sassinations of Dr. Martin I,ot her, King, Jr., and Sen. Rob ert Kennedy, audio t t * presi dential candidacy of for me i Alabama Gov. George Wallace, the “more law order campaign” by Richard Nixon, and Hie de rogatory remarks of Spiro \ ; new. Both, political convent ion a d the use of National Guardsmen and riot police showed *1 • un willingness of the established democratic process to openly address itself to the probier s of the cities. Actions at the conventions choked off all hope of working witliln a legal framework to solve the problems of the cities. In New York city, a dispute over decentralization, or com munity control of schools brought another aspect of racism to the surface--biack antt-semitism. Civil disorders have largely moved from the streets of the ghetto to the campus, both high school and college. The dis senters • are no longer angry Black ghetto terrorists bent on destruction but also middle class Black and white young people who are angry and frust rated with the society they live in. Why are they angry? Why are young people and Black people today, living In a land of free dom and prosperity, bent on changing the world they live in? What will this determination do to American cities? The “One Year l ater,” re port points out: --No real steps have been taken towards erasing racial discrimination and proverty. —No adequate prograins have been developed in dealing with the conditions of slum-ghetto life. --No serious start towards changing the national priorities, programs and institutions ad vocated by the Kerner report. --Ghetto schools continue to fail --The Vietnam war continues to demand a greater portion of the national budget, ■ ! : <•]'« is ,i tre-rneniiom; g>s il: ' fI'.J.IOV;; i •'! * {;*'{)£»! .> 11 s >r* £* r.ion Is as serious as ever, - avhf ire pi .tiv ci'p a urn- a oiasr. of poor A?:or ita - .*> who ;U u j ?ut lon to : ■; *- k? hews, soclclv, *ir.rt for ihe go- ei ament in particular, for doing nothing to help ?!
