Prejudice
(Continued from Page Two)
survive, we must awaken from our individual dream
worlds and admit to ourselves that these United
States aren’t all they could and should be.
Sure, things aren’t as bad as they were fifty
years ago and I realize this. But I also realize that
things still could be a lot better than they are today.
The conclusion of racial prejudices must end and
must end quickly. For these and all other such at
titudes only threaten our chances of being a strong
and powerful nation in the years ahead. Discrimina
tions, not only to Blacks, but Indians and all other
minorities must be put to a close. Simply because
there are more peaches than plums doesn’t make
his way of life right. Each of us must learn to ac
cept each for what he is and learn to appreciate his
cultural attitudes no matter how different they may
seem.
As for Blacks, we've come a long way but we
must continue to proceed forward. And this con
tinuation of progress must be conducted in a con
structive manner so that harm isn’t brought to
one or anything. We must prevent from taking th©
road to the left of us which will lead us into an at
mosphere of what we have known so well: hate,
and hate. We must continue to be aware of what
past history tells us, but we mustn’t let such evils se
clude us into our own unidealistic worlds. We must
still be willing to come to the middle of the road.
And as for the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King’s achieve-
ments and dreams, we must not let them die m vain.
As for Whites, there must be a great deal of
deep understandings. I realize that many wiU say
that this is just and her approach to saying give
them everything for nothing,” or “I’m tired of hear
ing their same old complaints.” But you really
imagine of what being tired of heanng the same old
stories must be like until you sit down and listen to
your parents tell of their turn-downs and let-downs
simply because they were black. And although I ve
never experienced many of the ordeals they have, it
still hurts to think of what has happened to your
own Mom and Dad.
I say if a man Ls born in America him
be an American and let him be proud of
Americans must discover themselves and find what
they really stand for. Many must toss aside the the
ory that black is bad and white is all good. They
must learn how to possess only one personality and
must learn to practice the same liberal actions in the
SeVce 0? their “black friends”. While many argue
that they don’t care what society thmfe or says about
them they remain to be insincere to Blacks for fear
of what society will do to them. Bemg black and
trusting a White to be your friend who later
turns out to be nothing you ve built him to oe,
hurts. I know.
In conclusion, if we as Americans are able to
put the first foot forward just once mofe- Pf
this will be the start of a new era. And if it turns
out to be anything less, at least one of the major
problems of the world will be solved.
