Workers Party Steps In.
While this evasion Of the clamor
of the SO per cent Of the Negro race
who are workers--for a deter
mined stand for better conditions was
being carried on by the ambitious
and sleek rich men Of the race, there
was one party which was standing by
and in ringing tones rallying the
workers against their false and self
ish leaders. The Workers Party, at
its recent convention, passed reso-
luton which was officially incorpo-
rated into its platform, for absolute
equality among the races.
"The twelve million Negroes in the
United States constitute an oppressed
race, and as such they require and
demand special attention." the reso-
luton declares. "The workers Of the
white race must be enlightened to
the giving of complete and equal
participation in all forms of the po-
litical and industrial organization of
the working class. The elimination
of all race discrimination within the
working class movement is prelimi-
nary to its elimination in society as
a whole.
"The Workers Party pledges itself
to strive, for the following ends:
Abolition Of all discrimination
against the Negro in housing; equal
wages to Negroes; equal rights of
the Negroes to membership in trades
unions; complete restoration of the
right of the ballot and the right to
hold political Office; the right to as
semble and to organize; drastic ac-
ton to punish and suppress lynching
of Negroes.
w. p. Defends Negro Workers.
"The emancipation Of the Negro
can be attained only in the emanci-
patton Of the working class as a
whole. A fixed rigid status and the
traditions of slavery bind the Negro
as a whole to the working. class. The
Negro is condemned, while the capt.
talist class system prevails to a COM
mon interest with the working class.
It is reasonable to expect, therefore,
that this suppressed race, as was the
case with the suppressed races in
Europe, will ultimately play large
role in the future social upheaval."
The Workers Party is the only po-
litical organization, therefore, which
definitely champions the cause Of the
Negro workers, and officially incor-
porates into its platform a demand
for the abolition of all race discrimi-
nation, including abolition of dis
elimination in housing.
