There was no Negro in the
Presidential reviewing stand ex-
cept members of the White House
domestic staff. AS far as that
goes, there were a whole lot OF
white folks who did not get into
the Presidential reviewing stand.
Our absence did not reflect so
much a present racial attitude as
it does lack of official position,
which has historically a ~acial
background.
Now we can settle down to the
work ahead, to broaden the base
of civil rights. to increase the
level of our official positions and
standing, and to prepare the way
for the first Negro president by
making better citizens of our
selves and by doing our part in
building the kind of nation he will
be humbly proud and happy to
serve.

1t will not make any difference to

Tor woman-why not?) for the

The events of Inaugural Week
show we still have a long way to
go but we are making progress.
Fundamentally. the atmosphere in
Washington was different this
Inauguration from any other.
Planning for the Inauguration
started off with the principle that
all citizens had the right to parti-
cipate in Inaugural functions &C
cording to level and station. That
left us out Of many things because
we are still on the bottom rungs
of most ladders; but taking each
level horizontally Negroes partici-
pated in all public or official
events.
They were at the Truman
Barkley dinner on Tuesday night;
the Presidents Gala on Wednes-
day night; the Presidents recep-
ton Thursday afternoon and the
Inaugural Ball Thursday night.
They were represented in all sec
tons of the Inaugural parade, al
though not in all units. The Ma
rine Corps was still hly-white,
American Legion posts were still
Jim-Crow, in sharp contrast to
the completely intcgratcd AVG.
The armed forces outside of the
Marines did a triflc better. The
Navy showed a token indignation,
and there was spot of integra-
ton here and there in the Air
Corps; much more indignation in
the Merchant Marine Academy;
still separate units in most of the
Army detaChments
Civilian floats were practically
all hly-white except the District
of Columbia float; and they tell
me there was colored girl on the
float representing Chicago. II so,
she was a beauty; but frankly l
could not tell although l had my
ideas, because white folks and col
ored folks are getting to look so
much alike these days half the
time can't distinguish who is
which.
Indicating how far the process
Of indignation was seeping down,
when private householders called
the Inaugural Committee to list
room, they were all asked whether
they would accept Negro guests,
