payers who want to use it.
In its appeal for joint action,
the association says:
cat last all over the South ar
bitrary, discriminatory practices
are on their way out. However,
despite the many unprecedented
changes toward liberalism and
tolerance here in Miami the
general pattern for the "New
South" is not being followed. In
the very near future, the City of
Miami will open its new million
dollar library which has been
built and will be maintained out
of your tax dollar albeit you as
colored citizens will not enjoy the
full use of these facilities. The
Dade County Young Democratic
Association abhors such practices
of racial discrimination: we rear
that unless we can present a
community wide protest that this
gross injustice will have to be
accepted by us with a mere re-
partee that this is the South. You
are reminded that the future
public policy Of this city and
county is going to depend largely
upon what you want it to be for
we have the law on our side and
we do have potential political
power to demand justice.
