The Constitution and Black reparations

Prepared by New York State
Self Determination Committee,
Inc.

Negro slavery is again facing
the U.S. Courts, through a com-
plaint filed in the U.S. District
Court, Central District of
California on Jan. 26, 1988. The
complaint is a class action suit
filed on behalf of all U.S.
Negroes of slave descent by Dr.
Robert Brock and the Self De
termination Committee, Inc., a
civil rights organization. Relief
sought by Negro Slave De
scendants are as follows: self-de-
termination, reparations and
repatriations.

The idea of Japanese Ameri-
cans receiving reparations for
three years of interment has
heightened the awareness of
Black Americans to also receive
reparations for more than three
hundred years of unpaid and un-
compensated chattel slave labor
and the value thereof. The
Japanese were reparated
$20,000 for each descendant or
persons interred.

When the Declaration of Inde-
pendence was being declared
and the Constitution framed,
guaranteeing ~~life, liberty and
the pursuit of happinessT to
Americans, did not include
African shaves and their de-
scendants. Thomas Jefferson,
who owned slaves himself, and
whose original draft of the Dec-
laration of Independence at-
tacked the ~Peculiar Institu-
tion,?T (Slavery), was haunted by
his own hypocrisy. Four Years
before his death he wrote a
friemd; ~~Like a firebell in the
night, it awakened me and filled
me with terror. I considered it
at once as the knell of the
union.'T He also warned that ig-
noring the slavery issue may be
hushed for the moment, but ad-
ded, ~This is only a reprieve,
not a final sentence.?T

Judge A. Leon Higgin-
botham, Jr. one of six black
Americans to reach the Federal
Appellate bench, shows in his
first book ~~In The Matter Of
Color - Race & The American
Legal Process: The Colonial
Period? how the law itself con-
tributed to inflicting injustice
on millions of Americans, solely
on the basis of their color.? In
his Epilogue we are informed
that just before Chief Justice
Earl Warren died, Judge Hig-
ginbotham spoke with the Chief
Justice in great detail about his
ten year research on colonial
slavery. The Chief responded,
oIT would be especially in-
terested in seeing how at this
particular time because of a
reappraisal of my own thinking
concerning slavery not only
what it meant in the past but
the danger of what it will still
mean to the future.?T

Judge Higginbotham in re-
sponse: ~I concur with the con-
cern expressed by Chief Justice
Warren that the impact of our

heritage of slave laws will con-
tinue to make itself felt into the
future. For there is a nexus be-
tween the brutal centuries of
colonial slavery and the racial
polarization and anxieties of to-
day. The poisonous legacy of
legalized oppression based upon
the matter of color can never be
adequately purged from our
society if we act as if slave laws
had never existed. Unless their
color was their crime, these
blacks were innocent. Under the
colonial rule of law, however,
blacks who sought the same
freedom that was now demand-
ed as the inalienable right of
whites could be scalped, muti-
lated, or even killed. In every
major respect, the colonial law
itself was an instrument of in-
justice.?

~They (Black Leaders) should
petition Congres to pay
reparations to American
Blacks instead of continuing to
support affirmative action
legislation,TT said the late
Clarence Pendleton, Chairman
of the U.S. Civil Rights Com-
mission, at a news conference in
Los Angeles, In a May 17 article
mystery. In the May 17, article,
in the Los Angeles Times, writ-
ten by Bob Baker. Mr.
Pendleton is quoted a3 saying
~There is nothing I see in the
law that requires anybody to
make up for the past. If Ameri-
ca owes Blacks something for
the past, for the terrible state of
slavery,T said Mr. Pendleton,
oBlack leaders (including Black
U.S. Congressmen) should take

a more direct approach of
petitioning Congress for repara-
tions that would be paid to all
Blacks ~~instead of tinkering?T
with civil rights laws, said Mr.
Pendleton.

oDymally Challenges Blacks
To Seek Reparations Bill Like
Japanese AmericansT is the
heading on an article in the
August 22, 1988 issue of JET
Magazine. The article stated
that: ~~The recent passage of a
bill giving $20,000 to each
Japanese American (or their de-
scendents) held in interment
camps during World War II has
created a controversy among
Black officials.TT ~~The con-
troversy is a result of Black
leaders who believe, like the
Japanese, should also be com-
pensated for the racially
motivated injustices of
slavery.T ~~The (Japanese) bill,
ironically, was first introduced
by the Congressional Black
Caucus Chairman Mervyn
Dymally. However, DymallyTs
response to critics is that talk
without action is all heTs heard
from Black leaders approaching
him about similar legislation for
Blacks.?T

Inspired by the credo of -

oto eradicate inequality by the
year 2019,? U.S. Congressman
Major Ownes of New York writ-
ing in the Point of View, a publi-
cation of the Congressional

cial Edition, Convention 1988,

stated ~~..individual leaders

At this pivotal poitn in our his:
tory, not to be bold will con-
stitute a betrayal of our people.
To compensate for centuries of
injustices and to overcome the
severe damage of the past, we
must all recognize the need for
reparations for all descendants
of (U.S.A.) African slaves.?T

Last month the Second Annual
Black Reparations Conference,
sponsored by the Baltimore and
National Self Determination
Committee highlighted the need
for congressional action for pay-
ment of reparations to Black
Americans. In: the furtherance
of the National efforts to peti-

~tion Congress, as well as to

meet the challenge of Black
Congressional spokesmen to
write legislation and to intro-
duce a bill into the 101st Con-
gress, the Self Determination

National President, accom-
panied by Rose Nyenewe Tay-

1988. Mr. Brock and Nyenewe
visited the offices of Con-
gressmen Hawkins, Mfume,

M Voice readers have read a
healthy discussion on election
practices in our community. Two
preceding articles, ~oThank God
itTs overT and ~Thank God, itTs
not Over yetT?T examine the validi-
ty of campaign workers who are
paid to influence voters at polling
places. Without a doubt the prac-
tice can, in a few cases, be found
legitimate. But most of the time
it is prostitution; nothing more,
nothing less. We most often hear
or use the word prostitution
within the sexual context. But
letTs briefly examine the broader
definition of prostitution. Pro-
stitution is the submission to an
immoral or unworthy act for
money. Therefore in the political

"arena people who accept money

and those who offer it are prac-
ticing prostitution whether they
admit it or not.

Here in Pitt County the prac-
tice of this prostitution has indeed
zotten to a dangerous level. Peo
ple who accept the money and
stand at the polls will openly ad-
mit that pay is their motivation.
They will look you in the eye and
explain, ever so sincerely, that
they need the money due to hard

financial circumstances,
unemployment, etc. Even
leaders in the Black community
have been heard declaring how
much money they received or
would require too produce poll
workers. In fact, Black leaders
who are used as puppets by
wealthy white candidates are the
major league prostitutes of our
community. Among these leaders
and workers we hear no discus-
sion of issues or what a particular
candidate will afford the Black
cOommmunity. These folks
couldnTt care less about a can-
didateTs record and what he or
she has or has not supported. The
basis of their political philosophy
is ~~work for the candidate who
can pay for your time and ef-
forts.?T

Campaign workers should be
volunteers who believe that their
candidate is worthy of the time
and effort needed for election. If
the cindidateTs campaign can af-
ford to pay expenses such as
transportation cost or food, it is
totally appropriate to allocate
monies to defray such costs. Any

Dear Family Therapist:

I enjoy reading your column.
It is always very informative.
Thanks especially for what you
write on parenting. That is my
concern.

Sometimes I wonder if it is
more difficult today being a
parent. I do not remember my
parents being so actively in-
volved with my school when I
was a child in the 40Ts. Today it
is hard for parents to keep up
with supervising school work
and projects. Plus, I get the feel-
ing that many teachers do not
welcome parents asking too
many queations.

How can I understand and fol-
low what my child is doing in
classes and yet not be a
bother to his teachers? I have
always been active in the P.T.A.

PTA Member

Dear PTA Member:

Keep your PTA involvement.
Schools do need active parent
support. It also tells your child

and the importance of education
to you.

Yes, it is more difficult being
a parent today than it was 40
years ago. It is also more dif-
ficult being a student. The top
seven discipline problems in
public school 30 years ago were
listed as: talking, chewing gum,
making noise, running in the

halls, cutting in line, improper
clothing, littering. Today the
top seven problems are drug
abuse, alcohol abuse, preg:
nancy, suicide, rape, robbery,
violent assault. They are listed
in order as educators saw them
then anc see them now.

Many students today are fear-
ful of their lives and remain an-
xious, tense and guarded
throughout the day. They are
taught to: ~~just say NoT and

My Dear Fellow Readers:

First, I want you to know how
grateful I am for you. May God
Himself bless and reward you for
all your kinds of encouragement,
either expressed or unexpressed.

Then, too ITm grateful for your
interest in my column. Many of
you say, ~I clip your article each

are so positive.?

Finally, my warmest holiday
greetings. May your heart be fill-

remember in a special way the
coming of the Christ child into the
world.

THE SYMBOLS OF CHRIST

1. Candles. The custom of put-
ting candles in windows is an old
one. People light them on
Christmas Eve as a guide to the
Christ Child.

2. Bells. The custom of bells
ringing began as a way to drive
away evil spirits. Today, bells
ring at Christmas as a symbol of
the happy news of ChristTs birth.

3. Mistletoe. Hundreds of years
ago, people hung mistletoe over
their doors to keep away the evil
spirits. Those who entered got a
kiss as a symbol of love. People
also believed that mistletoe could
keep them healthy and their mar-
riages happy.

4. Stars. The stars are the sym-
bols of the beautiful star of
Bethlehem that led the Wise Men
to the Christ child.

5. Creches. The first creche, or
manger scene, was created by St.
Francis of Assisi in 1224. He us-
ed live animals and people in his
scene. Today, many manager
scenes are smaller models made
of wood or china or other
materials.

6. Poinsettia. In 1828, Dr. Joel
Roberts Poinsett brought the first
poinsettia to this country from
Mexico. He was serving as our
first ambassador to that country.
The legend is that a Mexican boy
had no gift for the Christ child. As
he knelt to pray, a beautiful

Holly and evergreens. In an-
cient days, some people believed
that holly would ward off evil

Spirits.

Christians too believe that the
berries stood for the blood Christ
shed. The leaves stood for his
crown of thorns. Evergreens stay
green all year and bear fruit in
the winter. For this reason, they
are a symbol of never-ending life.
8. Ornaments. The first
Christmas trees were decorated
with real fruit, flowers and
lighted candles. These ornaments
were too heavy and dangerous.
German glass blowers started
making lighter glass balls as
decorations.

9. Santa Claus. Santa Claus is
one of many gift bringers who
delivers gifts around the world.
For example, gifts in Italy are
delivered by an old fairy called
Befana.

What does the American Santa
Claus look like? More than 100
years ago, the famous Thomas
Nast drew a series of cartoons
that gave us a very good idea.

10. Stockings. Hanging stock-
ings goes back to an old legend
about St. Nicholas. The story is
that St. Nicholas dropped bags of
gold down the chimney for three
girls who had no wedding gifts.
The bags landed in stockings that
were hanging to dry.

11. Cards. The custom of sen-
ding printed cards started in
England in the 1840s. The artist
John Horsley created the design
and about 1,000 cards were
printed. Today, more cards are
sent at Christmas than at any
other time of the year.

12. Wassail. Years ago, many
English people held Christmas
feasts. As they drank a hot punch,
they would say o~WassailT?T, which
means TTto your healthTT. Today,
many people serve hot punch
called wassail.

home and trimmed it with
candles. Much later, Germans
brought the custom to this
country.

14. Yule log. People of Ghene
believed that burning a big log
drove away evil spirits. Through
the years a custom grew to cut
down a big tree several weeks
before Christmas. There was a
belief that anyone who helped
would have good luck. Today,
some people burn a special big
log, called a ~~yuleT?T log, at
Christmas.

Christmas is a Christian holi-
day that celebrates the birth of
Jesus Christ.

The story of Christmas comes
chiefly from the gospels of Saint
Luke and Saint Matthews in the
New Testament. according to
Luke, an angel appeared to
Shepherds outside the town of
Bethlehem and told them of
JesusTs birth. Matthew tells how
the Wise Men, called Magi,
followed a bright star that led
them to Jesus.

The traditional colors of
Christmas are green and red.
Green represents the conti-
nuance of life through the winter
and the Christian belief of eternal
life through Christ. Red sym-
bolizes the blood that Jesus shed
at His crucifixion.

The names of the three kings of
Orient who brought gifts to Baby
Jesus are Gaspar, Melchoir, and
Balthazar. The gifts were gold,
frankincense and myrrh.

SantaTs eight reindeer are
Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixon,

Comet, Cupid, Donner, and
Blitzen.
Fathers destroy their

childrenTs self-esteem with
unkind words like: ~oYou must be
stupidT; ~~Why are you crying?
Are you a crybaby? How come

secure young man or woman w

is so terrified of failing that he or
~she will do nothing. Fathers, do
you like being put down? Think
about it.

portunity to grow up spiritually in

Pitt, Martin Agencies
Receive State Grants

A community development cor-
~poration in Greenville and a minori-
~ty credit union serving Windsor and
~Williamston are among 21 recipients
Statewide named to receive North
Carolina Rural Economic Develop-
-ment Center grants.

Billy Ray Hall. president of the
State development center. an-
nounced the grants which total $1.5
million. They are designed to boost
local economic activities.

In Greenville, the West Greenville
Community Development Corp. has
been awarded a grant of $44,000 to
help carry out effective community
economic projects within the city of
Greenville, Hall said.

The local grant will assist in a
housing ownership demonstration
project within the West Greenville
area. Barbara Fenner is coordinator
for the project.

A minority credit unions grant of
$241,000 was made to St. Luke CreditT
Union in Windsor which serves Ber-.

tie and Martin Counties. Amaza
Mitchell is the coordinator.

The purpose of the grant is to pro-
vide an opportunity for the credit
union to increase loan size as well as
to increase the number of loans for
start-up of minority businesses and
opportunities, said Hall.

~The grant to St. Luke Credit Union
is the largest of any of the 21 ap-
proved grants, the spokesman said.

Based on guidelines required by
state legislation, $1 million of the
pilot project funds were allocated to
minority credit unions, with 10
unions receiving grants. The re-
maining $500,000 grant funds were
allocated to 11 community develop-
ment corporations.

. Provide the leadership to deal with. So long as crime is perceived

as being a problem confined to the black community, the
broader society will continue to ignore it or follow narrow, self-

~: defeating policies.

I go into communities and I see 16-and 17-year old kids with
beepers on their hips, driv- jus ' sa
ing $30,000 cars while liv-
ing in the projects. I know

TO BE

ie mothers didnTt give
~~ them the money.
And I know that if they EQUAL
Paid cash, they didnTt =e
work to get it. At least not ' John E. Jacob

in legal jobs. That ought
. Lo be obvious to everyone,
but as long as such condi- + ;' Fr
tions are confined to the black community, the broader society
oshows no interest.
Three decades ago, the prisons did not have majority minority

_ populations. All of this is a new development. During some of

the most oppressive times for black people, we were not the ones
who populated the jails. Something has happened over the last
two to three decades in our neighborhoods.

So the black community must begin to put in place programs
that address crime. We run a major crime prevention program
in the National Urban League. We call it: ~~Crime is not a part

~of the black heritage.TT

_ That program is based on the need to do several things. We

~~have to insist that black people in our community live by our
traditional value systems that says we will not kill each other;
that we will not steal from each other.

We will not have drugs in our community and have kids afraid
to go to bed at night because of the gunshots outside their win-
dows, or old people unable to go out of their apartments because
somebody is going to take their Social Security checks.

We have to instill and re-instill in our community that value
system that says we must care for each other and protect each
other.

. Today, committed people are organizing neighborhoods and
communities saying: ~~LetTs tell the pushers they canTt operate
here.?T

TheyTre demanding that the police protect black
neighborhoods with the same concern with which they protect
white neighborhoods. And theyTre bringing that message to
bee projects and homeowners, young people and family

At the same time, weTve got to keep up the pressure to provide
our young people with clear alternatives to self-destructive
behavior. ItTs a double-edged problem " getting tough on those
who violate community standards will work if there are incen-
tives that pull kids away from the street. .

That means drawing young people into tenantsT patrols and
other anti-crime activities, while providing athletic and recrea-
tional activities for them that channel energies into fun, not
destruction.

And it means fighting even harder for the social changes, bet-
~ter education and training opportunities, and more humane
policies that give kids a better chance in life.

Clearly -these are responsthilities of the larger-society but
whatever societyTs unmet responsibilities, we canTt allow our
communities to be ravaged by predators preying on their
neighbors.

We should not and do not have to tolerate crime and drugs in
our neighborhoods.

how to smuggle and keep a

In all these problems parent-

able and unacceptable behavior.

ferent levels of intent to learn.
This is largely based on what
they know is expected or
demanded of them in the family.
Family expectations are to be re-
enforced by the teachers ex-
pectations.

Some homes establishT that
the acquisition of knowledge is
the function of their children
from infancy to adolescence. It
is known as their purpose at
that stage of life. Other homes
establish no special purpose.
Their children play around, take
it easy and donTt conform to ac-
tivities that are structured,

stressful,

It is usually those children who
go to classes and seek to do the
minimum work. They may
finish school, but still see how
much study they can avoid.

hardly! The end of this
nightmare will slowly occur as
campaign strategists look at the
dollars they spend compared to
the voters that they get. For-

significantly. They may delivera
few votes, but the most that they
do is to insult the real volunteers

This inability to actually in-

The election is over"the

the real show begins"the fram-

Once Ronald Reagan rides off
into the sunset of retirement, the

And the way to do that is to

separates whites and blacks in

January 16, 1989

and works of Martin Luther King, Jr.
His peacable fight for equality

movement that lives on to this day.

By RENEE MINUS WHITE §

Along with the holiday excite-
ment comes the big question of |
where to purchase that special
gift! LadyTs Day hit ~~Kinapps?
Fulton Street in Brooklyn last
Saturday morning and found a |
fabulous collection of gifts from
the continent.

Kinapps is a one-stop shop,
that offers you hair care with an
asymmetrical hair cut on one?
level, and high-fashioned de-.
signs with unique accessories on ,,
the upper level. ItTs the place to
be for that spirit of Black-
consciousness, a place where it
grows and flows.

For men and women, this ar-|
ticulate shop is just one of Byll
LesterTs chain of three barber
shops in Brooklyn. A native of
Florida, Lester started Kinapps
in 1985 with Kinapps I at 192
Flatbush Ave. ThereTs a Kinapps
II located at 225 Dekalb Ave.
And Kinapps III, at 1213 Fulton
St., is the only sh op where they
manufacture many of the im-
peccably tailored clothes sold in
the upstairs Primitive Boutique.

According to Greta Wallace,
manager and buyer of the Primi-
tive line, oThe look is Regal.? oIt
starts at the top with great cut
and well groomed hair. The line
and structure with the Kinapps

outfit are too fabulous. oHair in
general must be shaped properly
in order for you to have a
fashionable look,? she advised.
oYour hairstyle doesnTt matter.
Your style can be whatever
works for you in your life...
braids, perm, or Afro. Without
good-looking hair, your look is
incomplete.?

Accessories make the outfit.
The hat is very important this
season. And Greta thinks, ~~ear-
rings are the life. If youTre wear-

was established by creating pro-

educational achievement,
employment, income, life expec-
tancy, infant mortality, and other
key indicators of individual and
family well-being.

ThatTs an achievable goal. The
college students of the year 2000
are in first grade right now. The
workers and managers of tomor-
rowTs economy are in school and
on the job right now.

And the means to transform to-
dayTs forgotten and neglected
people into productive, taxpaying
citizens are known to all of us,
right now. °

ThereTs no mystery about how
government can be a positive in-
fluence on the social and
economic framework of society.

We know that when you create
opportunities for decent housing
and health care and provide
quality education and training,
you help people move from
poverty to the middle class.

And we have a body of
epxerience"from the New Deal
work programs to the GI Bill and
the Great Society to state, local,
and private programs in the
1980s"that tell us what works
and what doesnTt work.

We know that when kids attend
quality pre-school programs they
do better in school, have higher
college attendance and employ-
ment rates and lower teen
pregnancy and crime rates.

Brawley ~buggingT man
faces arraignment

By JESSE H. WALKER

The man who told authorities
he secretly recorded the con-
versations of Tawana BrawleyTs
advisers but later failed to pro-
duce the tapes was indicted on
two counts by a Manhattan
federal grand jury last week on
charges of perjury and obstruc-
tion of justice.

Samuel McClease, 26, the self-
described surveillance expert,
faces arrangement on the
charges on Thursday, Dec. 8,
said spokeswoman for U.S. At-
torney Rudolph Giuliani.

The indictment closely paral-
leled a criminal complaint filed
against McClease in the sum-
mer. A resident of Newark, he
has been free on $100,000 bail,
but faces a maximum penalty of
five years in prison and a
$250,000 fine on each count of
the indictment if convicted.

The indictment said McClease
claimed to have 10 tapes of con-

versations among Rev. Al.
Sharpton and Brawley attor:
neys C. Vernon Mason and Al-
ton Maddox. 7
McClease maintained in state-_
ments to investigators and re-.
porters that Sharpton hired him
to bug his home as well as the
home and office of Mason, and*
that he had proof to refute.
BrawleyTs claim she was kid-
naped and sexually assaulted
by a gang of white men. Sharp-
ton denied ever employing Mc- .
Clease. ~
After he made his public:T
statement, McClease only pro?!

Because blacks are dispropor-

Dr. Talbert 0. Shaw as 12th presi-
dent of the university. The
medallion is of a double-face
design with bas-relief imagery. It
is a shield-shaped and is slightly
more. than two pounds of cast
silver with recessed antique
patina as a background. The im-
age of a cross, as seen from a
distance creates the patinated
background for the university
crest. On the reverse'side of the
medallion in raised Roman
typeface is inscribed: Talbert O.
Shaw, Twelfth President of Shaw
University, November 18, 1988. In
the investiture ceremony, Pro-
fessor McMillan was selected to
place the ribboned medallion on
Dr. ShawTs shoulders. The piece
is but one of Mrs. McMillanTs
achievements in the arts during
her career and tenure at Shaw.

Decorate safely for the Christmas holidays

Christmas tree lights have
become as much a part of the
Christmas season as Santa Claus
and sleigh bells. They add to the
festive mood of the season.
However to ensure a safe holiday
season, Carolina Power & Light
Co. suggests the following
precautions be taken with elec-
tric lights and other decorations:

*Attach no more than three

ERSIDES"

Small ROB Shrimp.

2 Vegetables. Hushpuppies

strings of lights to each extension
cord. More than three may
overload electric circuits.
Miniature lights save energy and
also reduce the chance of
overloads and fires.

*Before using, check all strings
of lights for broken or cracked
sockets and frayed wires.

*Make sure that all sockets in
your Christmas lights have bulbs.

Failure drives black leadership on

Muhammad Ali floated like a butterfly and stung like a bee.
YouTve got to give it to ~~the greatestT? " he was a marvel to
watch. There is another modern-day marvel to watch " Black
Leadership (BL), the action arm of the Black Establishment.

Black leaders have led a struggle in America since slavery to
give Americanized Africans the same opportunities showered on

Americans of European. | |:

- descent. But todayTs col-

Tony

Comments

although failing miserably
in that task, is inaclass by
itself.

It is so good at defining
the problem (actually con-
fusing it with the predica-
ment) and convincing the

cm black masses that self-help
solutions donTt matter, that it is able to perpetuate itself with
failed results.

Take, for example, money. ItTs really not important, BL tells
us, how much money we have or we spend with non-blacks
(about 95% of our income), itTs only important that non-blacks
provide more jobs for blacks. If you canTt figure out that incon-
sistency, donTt read any further.

In spite of racism, blacks earn at constantly rising rates ($30
billion in 1970; $230 billion in 1987; and a projected $900 billion
in 2000 " only 12 years away), but as a result of the economic
suicide of spending $170,700,000 more with whites than they

spend with one another, blacks get family disintegration, il--.:
literacy, high unemployment, crime (against each other) and -

drug addiction.

In turn, BL uses the statistical reality of this black failure toT

document the presence of white racism, which is already ubi-
quitous without black underachievement. As a matter of fact,

150 national black organizations spend $3 billion each year inT: - |
white hotels discussing white racism and black poverty. And...

blacks do not own one major hotel in America.

A very fragile BL Black Agenda consists of two items: Jesse
Jackson~running for president every four years and voting for
any Democrat (these genes, it is implied, contain no racist
genetic material). There is no cohesive economic self-help em-
phasis. The result of compliance is economic and political pover-
ly.

Blacks are politically isolated from two-party politics and fear
their own political independence. Result: The White House is
now, permanently it seems, in the hands of the GOP, whose
membership, BL tells us, comes gift-wrapped with a racist
genetic code.

And even when a member of BL tries to escape the clutches of
self-defeat, the masses are conditioned (believing that any devia-
tion from the BL stance is racial treason) to condemn the in-
dependence and ~demand more failure.

Take, for example, .The New Pittsburgh CourierTs endorse-
ment of Republican George Bush for President. Letters from
irate victims of the BL Syndrome dominate its editorial pages
these days, questioning the paperTs sanity.

Many of them wonder why this black paper could not ignore
Michael DukakisT arrogance, racism, ineptness and in-

competence, After all, heTs a Democrat " our friend. A few |
black papers ~~lostTT my column each time it criticized Michael .

Dukakis and the Democrats; some will misplace this one. But
denial won't change the facts.

And now that BL and the black community are political losers
" again + the spoils of victory will go elsewhere. Now BL is us-
pol that fact to ~~proveTT that racism and the GOP did us in

n..

But the reality is that the Courier and blacks who supported
Bush made the right political decision. They will be consulted on
the division of aawards to the winning side, These blacks

money for black colleges, appointments, entry to decision mak-

ing, ete.

But the BL Syndrome will diminish their ability to help other
blacks by branding them ~Uncle TomsT and oAunt
Thomasinas.TT They will be vilified as tools of the racist enemies
of black people. And most, understandably, will bow to the
pressure and quit trying. .

The BL Syndrome will maintain a steady flow of 95 percent of
black income into white hands. It will guarantee an undeserving,
jocratic Party the blind allegiance of black voters.

- It will assassinate the character of any member of BL who at-
Py help the masses through independent
IV allow us to murder each other, avoid
0 keep on doing so.

Hall encourages
minorities to participate
Bert Hall, County Supervisor
for Farmers Home Administra-
tion, (FmHA) in Pitt County is
encouraging the participation of
minorities in the AgencyTs Farm
Loan Program. Mr. Hall stated
that as a result of the
Agricultural Credit Act of 1981,
twenty-one (21) percent of the
farm ownership loan funds and
farm inventory property will be
reserved for minority farmers in
North Carolina. The targeting of
loan funds to minorities will
assist FmHA in its efforts to
reverse the loss of farm owner-
ship by that group. Persons in-
terested in the program should
contact the local county FmHA
office at Flowers Office Complex,
1411 S. Evans Street, P.O. Box
897, Greenville, N.C. 27835.
FmHA is a lender of funds for
Agriculture and Rural Develop-
ment within the United States
