RIGHTS OF FREEDOM
All last week group OF loyal
citizens protested in the down town
section against discrimination. Pro-
testing against all forms Of discrim-
ination is the only way TO gain
the rights Of freedom, and every
citizen who believes in the rights
OF freedom should give moral and
physical support to any right cause,
Discrimination is traditional preju-
dice, ami all such evil is misunder-
standing of perpetual truth, yet i
must be corrected il we ever expect
to enjoy together the peace, JOY and
contentment Of freedom.
May this entire race become ever
.watchful, that you be not deceived.
not deceive not yourself, by per-
hitting any disguised form OF dis
elimination TO pass unchallenged
Let not selfishneSs disguised as the
betterment of the race rob you of
the freedom which is rightIJlly
yours. Boundaries OF limitation is
discrimination. You are positive, or
you are negative on the question.
Many forward steps have served
for discrimination, because of silent
consent on the part OF those who
did not believe in it, keeping silent.
Protesting for the rights of freedom
is solemn declaration against
wrong treatment
