Recently, we have been re
minded, through various me
dia*, to "Love Thy Neighbor
as Thyself." This command
ment is familiar to most church
going blacks. We have been
taught all our lives to 'love
thy neighbor' but, sad to say,
we have strayed from this
sapient advice.
We have divided ourselves
into cliques, clans, classes,
tribes, ''tracks," colonies or
whatever suitable dividing lines
we need to separate us from
one another.
The church, our greatest
heritage, makes for blacks a
sieve, which drops all save a
few of the big clfakers into
heaps of so called "little peo
ple."
Aside from a man's statue:
height, weight, bone structure
his physical aspects-what, act'
ually, constitutes a "little per
son?"
The expression "little peo
ple," "nobodies," should be
an anathema amongst blacks;
but, strangely enough, we do
have the gall to classify, rele
gate, brand, curse, stigmatize,
berate, lowrate, point out some
of our brethren as being "little
people, nonetities."
Blacks, as a whole, are the
most unclannish race in the
world. Where three or five are
gathered together In the name
of anything, you will find in

the midst thereof, one or more
"big IY'—all others are "little
you's".
You may have observed that
the most religious race in the
world is steeped in fears of
every description-fears of one
another for the most part.
Class distinction is on the
rampage in this century of
World Brotherhood, of seeking
Universal Love, the integration
of Human Relations. The in
dividualists are "in," If you've
got a gimmick-an attractive,
unique, eye-appealing, soul
feeling gimmick-your wagon
is hitched to a star.
Are the malefics, misanthro
pies, chavinistics, jingostics and
illiterates those whom society
claffify as "little people?"
Perhaps the down and out,
the indigents of this world, are
those who are snubbed or dub
bed "little people."
Once you stop to think
about it, you become all the
more puzzeled as to what in
gredients go into making a
"little person."
Use for a guideline this quo
tation:
"There is so much that is
bad in the best of us, And
so much that is good in the
worst of us, That it doesn't be
hoove any of us to talk about
the rest of us." No matter how
threadbare the so
"greats" might be they
manage to attract the nevy of
the masses
Our poor, unschooled, "salt
of tbe earth people" constitute
a majority or make up the
masses of society, these are
they who are blind to the
Gaults of the "moth that fret
teth the garment" of the
"mighty" and earn for them
selvM-for their blindness-the
disparaging title: "little peo
ple."
The truly successful, toe
positive thinkers, now in con
trol of business, politics, edu
cational and the benevolent
life could once say with
Gideon, "my family is poor in
Manasseh," therefore, they
wouldn't dare call another per
son "little" because of deprav
ed circumstances.
If our blacks 'n browns 'n
tans 'n high-yallers were beans,
the results would be similar to
Toussaint I' Ouverture's experi
ment with black and white
beans.
When Touasaint I' Ouver
ture, the Hytian patroit was
twitted upon the lower condi
tions of his black people, he
pictured a prophecy:
"Fill the keg with black

count the black beans at the
upper end." While the better
conditioned are filtered down
ward by the weight of their
own lethargy, the less favored
individuals are rflmhing up by
a sort of capillary energy in
spired by the necessities of
life.
The adage, "snatch a cat out
of the hot ashes and it will
cratch your eyes out," has its
good points for curbing a will
ingness to 'rescue the perish
ing', however, we can develope
a climate of good throughta to
ward our so called "little peo
ple."
"Thoughts have wings,'
make sure your carrier-pigeons
are bearers of good tidings. The
refuse of the social field is the
ultimate source of its enrich
ment. By the by, whatever
happened to the truism, 'chari
ty begins at home.'
