PURGISM DANGEROUS

However, nobly inclined the
NAACP may be, it must admit that
segregation cannot be removed by
fiat even of the government Like
a vast moral Dardenelles, the anti
lynching fight has to date come to
nought, because certain things can
not be forced; and if this is true of
the NAACP, how much more is it
with its individual supporters
throughout the nation. 1t is not
going to be a fine thing for Ne
groes to resort to purgism.
The purge that liquidates a Will
liam Pickens is highly questionable,
and strikes us as indefensible. We
are not going to get very far by
trying to fool ourselves that we are
going to have "all or none" The
Negro has come long way by
taking what he could get until he
could get what he wanted The
Negroes who face this ugly fact
are just useful in this fight as the
Negro who refuses to face what he
does not like. Russia and Germany
and Italy have had their purges
There is no room among Negroes
for purgism. Let Negro leadership
concentrate in annihilating Nazism
not one another.
