SHALL. THE
NEGRO FIGHT

IL IL true that the black man IL no
Eore the pet Of the North. There WAS a
time that he Was. hut it seems now that
he is the pest of the South and the puz-
zle OF the North. The southerners may
not Ice too near-sighted to the black
mans future, nor the northerner too far
sighted n see his present conditions.
But IL does seem that neither North or
south has very much sight when il comes
70 seeing the black man in the right
light One II prrjndice blind and the
other is color blind.
The white people OF the South see too
much OF him, and the white people of
the North see too little of him, and as
rule the white people Of the North Judge
the black race by the few they see in the
northern cities.
They must 70 south To SEE the black
man; we mean the majority Of the pro-
Rressive black men and women. There
are many leaders in the North who ARE
strong types Of the worth and value Of
the black mans genius.
The white people OF the South are said
70 love the individual black man and
hate the black race, and the northerner
70 hate the individual and love the race.
And We find the black man again be-
tween two extremes.
The sousherner see,- too much of him
and ths northerner sees too little; one
too fsr and the other too near.
