Recently a good many Negroes
have made remarks about not car
ing If Japan did win the war They
have tried to justify their state
ments by pointing to many forms
of discrimination praeticed against
the Negro in America. We are
all aware that a large segment
of the Negro people do not have
full citizenship rights. We know
that the race is economically poor.
Yet we know that in the frame
work Of democracy lay the hopes
and aspirations of our people. 1t
is absurd to believe that the Jap
anese would better our condition.
Even II it were so an Axis victory
would not give them control over
this country. What Hitter would
do is no military secret. We would
be returned to slavery without un-
do ceremony.
/ do not contend that II the Axis
powers win, Negroes will be put
into the type Of slavery that exist
ed before the Civil war. Our en-
slavement will be along the lines
practiced against the Jews in Ger
many. There are always those
who are willing to say that the
Nazis philosophy Of rare suprem-
acy was the brain child of the
klu Klux klan. They hold that
in America, the Negro has a limit
ed type of freedom and that any
violent change may bring about 3
better condition.
Such line Of reasoning is as
absurd as it is dangerous. The
basic thought is that the conquer
ed white man will be reduced to
the same status as the black man.
This is not what We want.
We want land where all
men are free. In the seventy
eight years of our freedom, we
have made rapid strides in that
OF course the Negro has many
problems in America. These prob
lens can not be solved with one
wild sweep Of the hand. They are
problems of adjustment, education
and economic opportunity.
As / study the perplexing sit
uation of the American Negro in
the present war effort, am re-
minded of the esteemed words OF
my father who said, "Judge me
not by my race or what | say, but
by the kind Of man you have found
me to be-" There could be a race
philosophy voiced in such cor
porate expression. Our fellow
Americans have found US to be
loyal to this country. From the
time when Ciispus Attacks gave
his life on Boston Commons in the
cause of American freedom until
the recent incident when Dorie
Miller rose to the heights Of glory
