For the past month, I have been writing articles about "Token Blacks." who head de partments of recreation and "white Blacks", who could help the Youth in Raleigh, hut 'don't want to be tethered with the routed little good for nothing,’ You simple-mined people, stop reading this ar ticles right how because von going to 'list c r it Seize this article. You don’t have thegL braiues to stop and try to think * Jp* if you are real- j§F lv trying to do anything for the | Black teenagers * in Raleigh. Yes, DAVIS I will admit that there are some Youth Program in Raleigh, but how many teenagers do you think know about them and have Youth in the Recreation Depart ment, have you been in the Black Community and asked the teenagers to meet with you so you could explain this program to them? There are not many Black communities in Raleigh that it would take up all your time and the so-called workers un der you, what do they do Help you make up youth programs without asking the youth what they want. I’m sorry, maybe you do ask the Youth around your home or the ones that pass b\ your office or is it the white man that makes up the programs for your Black brothers and sisters and all you have to do is have it there for anybody that wants to take part in it? The Black people in Raleigh and in your surrounding area know how you are just in case you don’t know yourself "this is you." You have worked hard physically and mentally to get to where you are now (if that’s anywhere, it may be to you but to your Black brothers and sisters it's nowhere, because your are not doing anything for them).

Martin Street RALEIGH, N. C. 27601 NAME __ ADDRESS ( PHONE ________ 1 to help the Black youth but you are the type of person that thinks of you and you along. You don’t care what type of program the youth of Raleigh have or how many of them know about it or take part in it. Don’t psych yourself out and think that the black youth and adults don’t know you for what you are You know you have a good job and that you are capable or handl ing the job, so you don’t give a rat about what the people think because you know you have a degree and if the peo ple do pressure you and cause the white man to fire you, or should I say, tell you to resign, because you have l>een exposed and with you being exposed this means his program is exposed and he (the white man) cannot have this happen to him. So you are out of a job, but y ou don’t care because you still have that peice of paper so y ou know you can get another job. When anyone writes about you like this, it doesn’t tx>ther you, All you say is that person is nuts because you know that you S ave most of everything you need as proof in black and white. The Black people know and I know the proof you have in Black and white isn’t anvthing because you don’t have a program. We are after you and you bet ter use the things that got you that degree for if you don't end your "mess around" and let your personal feelings over come your job functions and cause you to be exposed. You are in trouble. Y'ou have two enemies the Black people and your white friends. It’s up to \oti in what direction you want to go because you are in the spotlight now, but I guess the only way to make Black Heads act, is when they are exposed! There will lie Youth program introduced and they will involve your department and you be cause the teenagers are sick and tired of standing on the street corners every Friday ar.d Saturday, because all they have to do is jive around, and throw bricks and bottles in the street and dance under the street lights. There are other tilings they would rather do be sides go to the Youth Center and gyms during the day and play ping pong and basket ball on a riped up net or no net. Why don’t you give them a chance? Let them have a summer like they want. (Y'ou Still Have Time)????????????

In Gary, Mayor Richard G. Hatcher faced continued efforts to disannex the all-white Glen Park area from the city. According to Robert K. Step henson, leader of the disannexa tion movement, Glen Park wants to disannex because it isn’t getting its fair share of city services from Hatcher’s ad ministration. Glen Park residents, at a stormy meeting, voted 71 to 17 for disannexation --which would increase the Negro pro portion of Gary’s population while reducing the city’s *a v base. In Fayette, Miss., Mayor Charles Evers has acknowledg ed that his city is In a major financial crisis, but he p.’a to "get the money from som ( where.” Evers said he would try to seek help from the state, and if that failed, to ask as sistance from his friends a cross the country.
