is that he was guilty before he
killed! That was why his whole
life became so quickly and natur-
ally organized, pointed, charged
with a new meaning when this
thing occurred. Who knows when
another accident incolving mil
lions of men will happen, an 'acci-
dent that will be the dreadful day
of our doom?
Lodged in the heart of this mo-
ment is the question of power
which time will unfold!
Your Honor, another civil war
in these states is not impossible;
and if the misunderstanding of
what this bows life means is an in
dication of how men of wealth and
property are misleading the con-
seriousness of the submerged mil
lions today, one may truly come.
Il do not propose that we try
to solve this entire problem here in
this court room today. That is not
within the province of our duty
nor even, I think, within the scope
of our ability But our decision as
to whether this black boy is to live
Or die can be made in accordance
with what actually exists. 1t will
at least indicate that we see and
know And our seeing and know
ing will comprise a consciousness
of how inescapably this one mans
life will confront us ten million
fold in the days to come.
Il ask that you spare this boy
send him to prison for life. WHAT
would prison mean to Bigger Thorn
as? 1t holds advantages for him
that a life of freedom never mad
To send him to prison would be
more than an act of mercy You
would be for the first time within
the orbit of our civilization. He
would have for the first time an
openly designated relationship with
the world The very building in
which he would spend the rest of
his natural life would be the best
he has ever known Sending him
| to prison would be the first recog-
] milton of his personality he has
ever had. The long black empty
years ahead would constitute for
his mind and feelings the only GER
tain and durable object around
which he could build q meaning
for his life. The other inmates
would be the first men with whom
he could associate on basis OF
equality. Steel bars between him
and the society he offended would
provide refuge from hate and
fear.
Il say. Your Honor, give this boy
his life. And in making this con-
cession we uphold those two funda-
mental concepts of our civilization
those two basic concepts upor
which we have built the mighties
nation in history-personality ane
security-the conviction that thu
person is inviolate and that which
sustains him is equally SO.
