DECLARATION OF PRINCIPLES
OF THE COLORED CITIZENS
PROTECTIVE ASSO-
CIATION.


The following are some of tn,
principles for which the Colored Cit
izens Protective Association, an or
ganization of colored men and womer
recently organized for the civic pro
lection and betterment of their citi.
zenry OF San Francisco, stand for:
The principles we stand for and ad-
yocate in season and out of season
We believe that humanity is a unit
| and we advocate the cause of right
and justice for all sorts and condi-
lions OF people, women, children and
men.
We believe in an Almighty God and
we are unalterably opposed to the
sovereign will and power vested in
one human being, man or woman.
We believe in inspired and divine
race leadership and we are uncompro-
misingly opposed to specially hired
or charitably bribed leadership for
this reason: any man who can be spe-
cially hired and privately paid to lead
the people can be bribed to mislead
the people.
We believe that colored men in ali
parts of the republic should vote and
be allied with any political party they
desire, and we strongly advocate TAX
ing an active part In politics and vot-
ing at all elections.
We believe in broad franchise for
women and men, and we advocate the
same qualification for both, because
it is just, right and fair and will work
for the success of human progress and
good government.
The object of the Colored Citizens
Protective Association is: To seek the
truth by turning the searchight on in
dark places; to oppose false teachings
be written or spoken; to closely ex-l
anime books written by colored men
who pose as race leaders of their peo-
pie and to impartially, but fearlessly
and publicly criticize the same; toI
seek jobs for colored men in San
francisco, such as clerks, policemen,
fIremen, street sweepers and other po-
sltions; to look after the interest and |
have the rights of the people defend
ed in the courts of law; to expose
the facts concerning fake white and |
-olored so called reformers.
We appeal to the women and men
20 join US in crusade to change pub |
ic opinion which at present is so |
much against colored people. Let
is oppose the leadership of all spe-
;ially paid leadership. We can abol-
sh them.
Their headquarters are at the of

owing persons are its officers: Greg
