NEGRO RESOLUTION.
Whereas the negros of the United States, because
of their long training training in slavery and but
cent emancipation therefrom, occupy peculiar position
in the working class and in society at large;
"Whereas the capitalist class seeks to preserve this
peculiar condition and to foster and increase color pref
udice and hatred between the white worker and
the black make their social and economic inter-
ests appear to be separate and antagonstc in ordet
that the workers of both may thereby be more
easily and completely exploited
IA
tonal and religious institutions alike betray the negro
his present helpless struggle against dsfrahchsment
and violence in order to receive the economic favors of
the capltalstic class; be it therefore
"Resoved, That, the Socialists of America, in
National Convention assembled, do hereby
negro fellow worker of sympathy with him in his
subsection to awesness and OPPRESSION and also
him of the fellowship of the workars who suffer from
the awlesness and exploitation of capital in every
ton or tribe in the world; be it further
.Rssolved, That declare to the negro worker the
identity of his interests and struggles with the interests
and struggles of the workers of all lands without
gard color sectional lines; that the
which have him the victim of social and political ine
quality the effects of the long exploitation of his
labor power; that all social and preudices spring
the misery of the whole human family that the only
line of division which exists in fact is between the pro-
ducers and the of the world-between capital
and labor; and be it further
"ResOlved That we, the American Socialist Party
invite the negro to membership and fellowship with
in the world movement for economic emancipation by
which equal liberty and opportunity shall be secured
every man, and fraternity become the order of the
world"
