THE WORD NEGRO.

Every race OF people en- the face OF
the earth, save the oolored people o.
thu unittd States, have a distinct
nomencla and are proud of it
Tho blacks of the United States
abhor the word negro, and con-
sldsr it on epithet to call them Afri-
cans. They call themselves "co!ored
people" which means nothing, has
no Specification, and is therefore alb
surd and ridiculous. A few days
since the Coiored editors held meet
ing in one OF the Northern states, and
by a rising vote resolution YVES
passed adopting the word negro as
the name for the race. This Is wise
movement. The colored people
should not be ashamed Of this sppella.
ton, as it simply means a black man,
a very da'k person with crisp or curly
hair. The word negro is the proper
name for the race, and they can conse-
crate it il they will divest themselves
OF prejudice and sccept it with that
p'ide which all other races feel for
their national coRnomen. horace can
command respect which detests the
name by which IL is known in the hit
tory Of the world and by all other
races. The Confederate colder IL
proud Of The name Rebel, given him
as a stigma Of disgrace, and when the
Co!ortd people universally accept the
name OF negro il will soon loose its
odium. Like all other races the nc
gro should have race pride, and this
he cannot do so long as he repudiates
his historical name and substitutes 1t
for one which means nothing. Race
pride ia elevating, but the pride that
disowns race name Is degrading
"Cslored people" can never be sub
stituted for the word negro, and the
backs should accept the latter, and
so live as TO make II tignih-
cant Of a proud and enlightened
people. The negro can call himself
an Am elican as he is; 80 are Irishmen
Germans, Italians and Frenchmen
but they are sill known by the race
from which they descended, and the
black will be known in all time as the
negro, and he should adopt the name,
and by race pride, confidence in race
capabilities, the consciousness Of race
achievements, make the word negro
suggestive OF intelligence, prog,esS
and happiness.
