The growth OF racial consciousness
among Negroes is manifesting Itself
In various ways. There is q growing
race pride, an increased interest in
race literature, more faith in Negro
leadership, the demand for patronage OF
Negro business. the boycotting OF
white firms which do not treat Me-
groes with courtesy, the moving away
from communities in which lynchings
have taken place, and the boycotting
of white insurance companies whose
agents fail to treat Negroes with
courtesy.
It is OF special significance that In
his struggle to rise the Negro is not
trying to deprive any other group OF
its rights and privileges. He Is moi
demanding anything that belongs t.
another; but he Is demanding rights
that are his. TO acquire the Identical
things that other Americans enjoy
And he Is specific In his demands. He
asks for equal opportunity to develop
himself by his own labors. He asks
equal opportunity to compete with
every other American for the identi-
cal fruits and blessings achieved by
any other American under the Ann
erican form of government. The Negro
asks no gifts, but an equal oppor-
tunity to acquire any and everything
other men acquire through honest
toll and sacrifice"
We conclude by again raising the
question, are conditions as they effect
US growing better or worse? IT Is
well Just here to distinguish between
progress and conditions. have
pointed out that in no period since
our Emancipation have we made
greater progress than during the past
three years. This indicates that diff
culties and restrictions and even per-
secutions do not necessarily prevent
progress II Is also important for US
to not that progress, going forward,
raises difficulties. often increases pre-
judice. and causes restrictions to be
imposed.
A most conspicuous example of this
is the segregation laws which were
passed in Baltimore. Louisville. st.
Louis. Atlanta and other cities in or
der to prevent not the unprogressive,
but the progressive Negroes from ac-
curing homes In desirable neighbour
hoods where they would have the same
advantages as to paved streets, sani-
tary conveniences. police protection
as were enjoyed by white people
The reaction against the progrOB,'
OF tia Negro had much to do with the
recent race riots, especially the one
in Chicago. Without answering the
question as to whether for us condi-
tions are growing better OF worse, we
can say, that as a race. we are going
Forward, we are making progress.
