SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 4. 1871 2 NADERTYPE (CONTIXUBD FROM FAGS t) in or lean communities, the major v;hlte decision makers in government, business and education, have relied too hea vily on psuedo-black activists, self-appointed black civil rights leaders, and white appointed black spokesmen for Informa tional input regarding the modes and moods of the black com munity. This practice has of ten turned out to be the 4Achil les heel’ of many programs with great potentials, “Jackson said. Jackson concluded; "Many white decision makers in gov ernment, business, and edu cation have Instituted a practice of hand-picking and appointing a key black person to the posi tion of ‘in-house’ authority on the problems of rendering ser vices to the black community. In the field of education as well as In government, this black appointee is sometimes given the titles of ‘Black Dean', ‘As sistant to the President’ or as sistant to other high level white personnel. Most of these black appointees are fully aware of the source of their positions and power and they therefore display an unswerving fidelity to the white decision maker, even In defiance of the hopes and aspirations of the powerless black poor. To expose this problem to public view and to try and bring about meaning ful change will be our quest. The Black community will never be aide to implement programs to fulfill Its manifest destiny as long as the decision making power in the Hack community i ests in the hands of a black ‘power elite’ that tends to ex emplify a sense of responsi bility only to their white bene factors.’’ CURRICULUM (COHTINUIEtI FROM FAOR t) in Durham.

War rants wore served the subject at the magistrate’s office prior to his being taken to the hospi tal.” Although the report listed Mr. Thomas as suffering from ‘swelling of the left side of the jaw,’ this newsman observed other bruises about his body and saw a truss (apparently for upper chest support), which he was wearing Monday. His sister, Mis. Mary Gille spie of E. Lane Street said, "They (the police) stomped him. I called the jail and the hospi tal and they told me that they didn’t have my brother up there. Why did ttiey take him to the magistrate’s office first, when he was in need of immediate medical treatment?” Mrs. Gil lespie also questioned the of ficer’s right to enter the man’s house without a proper war rant. Thomas was taken back to Wake Memorial Hospital Mon day afternoon, according to Mrs. Gillespie then carried to Duke Hospital In Durham, where it was reportedly decided to op erate in the region ot ms leit eye on Wednesday.

After ho was placed under arrest, he started resisting by kicking andstrick ing me. Diedrich was treated and re leased at Wake Memorial Hos pital for bruises of the ricyht wrist, hand and mouth.

He said finally that the two grand jury investigations had found no evidence that Fred Hampton and Mark Clark were murdered, nor that the police search was illegal. The jury did find, however, that out of the hundreds of shots ftred in the Incident, only one can lie accounted for as coming from a Panther gun. 0® T» Chard Svidcy MRS.

Cite Destruction Os Stage Type Negro NE\V YORK, N. Y. - The theatre of the sixties saw ihs destruction ol the stage stereo type of the Negro as "the comic slave-servant, the contented, devoted slave-servant, the tragic mulatto and the brute,” according to a study at Yeshiva University. According to Rasa Lee Nash, who completed the study as a doctoral dissertation at Yeshiva University’s Ferkauf Graduate School of Humanities and Social Sciences, "In the sixties, there emerged a new characterization of the black as young, lggressive, articulate, self-as sertive and militant.” In lier study, Miss Nash ex amined some 100 plays prioi to 1960, beginning with "The Padlock,” a comic opera pro duced in 1769, which introduced tiie first comic servant, Mungo. For the sixties, Miss Nash selected eifht plays which were seen on the.stage In New York City during 1960-69; "A Raisin in the Sun,” "Blues for Mister Charlie,” “ The Dutchman,” "The Great White Hope,” "Ceremonies In Dark Old Men,” ,I No Place to be Some body, “Theßlacks,’’and “Slave Ship,” All the plays were writ ten by black writers except "The Great White Hope” and "The Blacks.” "In the theatre prior to the sixties,” Miss Nash said, “th« black man was characterized as something to be manipulated for the pleasure or service of the white man.

The social trends which fostered this image and created the need for the growth and development of the myths and rituals were the institution of slavery, and fol lowing reconstruction, the pat terns of force which were used to keep the black man in a virtual economic, social, political and educational state of enslave ment.” Miss Nash said that the change in the portrayal of the black was reflected in the changes in the social trends during and immediately prior to the sixties. ‘‘The dominant trends are those of a society more ready to face up to its responsibility towa-rd the A meric%n black, and the black man becoming more aggressive on Ids own behalf, especially in the use of initiative and forcefulness '** Married Wowen Tefi Security GREENSBORO - J.
