The second reason is this type of thing is the cancer which spreads and cannot be controlled as the manipulators 1 often think. 1 have in mind the wave that the industrialists and financiers of Germany in the 1920's and early 30's used Hitler and his bully boys to foment violence against unions and all progressive forces. Eventually, they couldn't control those people.

We must expose this type of racist behavior and those people whop back it both with their money and , their protection uner the law. The Church and other < black institutions should go on record publicly denounc- i ing any organization, any government, or any other association involved in racist attacks upon blacks. W.J. Kennedy, III, president of North Caroline Mutual Life Insurance Company and board member of several multi-national corporations. "Violent attacks definitely should be the concern of government. The upsurge of the KKK particularly is " somewhat alarming. We should not stand idly by and permit this to develop in the way it has in the last few f s years without making some effort to counteract the af- r fects with publicity from our organizations.

People are suffering from dillusions when they think that the federal government is not going, in the future, to address this problem. I think that the purpose of the federal, state, and local government primarily is to protect our people, the citizens, from this r kind of attack. The president might have indicated by his < philosophy that he would be lenient on these kind of i things, but 1 think that after the budget and the other ] things that are pressing on his agenda, he and other of- ( ficials will have to turn their attention to keep this kind of j activity from becoming a permanent fixture in our coun- 1 try. 1 Leonard Dunston, president off the North Carolina Association off Black Social Workers. 44These attacks are a direct result of a passive kind of support by those in leadership positions across the nation as well as on the state and local levels. These groups could not exist without the federal support and endorsement of those who make policy and those who head correction institutions in this state and the counties. If they were able to infiltrate and destrov all of the Drocressive or<?ani7? w I ~ W * " O ^ tions of the 60's and 70's, you can't tell me that they are not aware of the leaders of these attacks. On one hand, I support the idea that surveilance of the Nixonian era is not the way to go. I do think that when groups are legitimately out exercising their constitutional rights, then it's up to government to ensure these individuals are given the opportunity to exercise their freedoms. Carie Graves, Is director of the North Carolina Project on Human Needs Vs. Military Spending of the Southern Organizing Committee for Economic and Social Justice, Charlotte. "State and national governments should not allow the Klan and Nazi to walk down the street and hold news conferences with lethal weapons. Had it been us or the Black Panther Party that was going to Greensboro, some of them would have been in prison right now with long inhuman sentences and a lot would be dead. I think that it is the role of state and national governments to make sure that everybody is protected in this country. But we can't be fools. We have to open up some self defense mechanism within our communities. Gordon Dilahunt, postal worker and organizer of the Raleigh Black United Front. "Governments should investigate the rise of right wing terror that is spreading across the country. The Klan and Nazi training camps, the various attacks on black people, the ways the local judicial systems have let off the Klan and Nazis in Greensboro, in Chatanooga, Tenn. and numerous other places throughout the land warrants strong governmental action. I think that the Congress should have a full investigation of racist terror. But on the other hand, history has taught us that we cannot rely on the government to do that for us. While we push government, we have got to rely on our own ability to protect ourselves from different kinds of terror, and other means of protecting our families and property.

"Islamic Views On V Education" By Judy Nazirah Rash id, Principal, Sister Clara Muhammad Elementary and Secondary School The word education is derived from the Latin words "e" meaning "out of' and ducere" meaning "To lead." Thus, education literally means - out of problems to their solutions, out of sickness into health, out of one condition to another. Education is a continuous cycle which trains the individual physically, morally, mentally, and spiritually, as culture is transmitted through various educational endeavors. Thus, miseducation can easily occur. It is out of this realization that the need to address education through this series of articles grew. As an Islamic educator', this writer's goal is to attempt to acquaint the general public with fundamental issues of importance in the field of education. Scientists and scholars of the world are trying to come up with rational explanations as to what prompts such unprecedented educational growth, as the Sis. Clara Muhammad School system, of which this writer is Principal at the local school. It is vitally necessary, therefore, that future articles will address intellectual pursuits, in religion, in the arts, as Wen as in th* *rrrrr- \r ,000 To UNCF ole in educating Blacks for before the UNCF's 37th aneadership in our society. nual convention, presented "The United Negro Col- the College Fund with ege Fund represents a checks totalling $150,000 primary instrument for en- on behalf of R.J.
