STRAIGHT AHEAD
OLIVE A. ADAMS

For years now we have been putting up with
some literature on the Negro that has left
great deal to be desired from a standpoint OF
accurate portrayal of Negro life. We have just
emerged from an era of Bigger Thomases'
when every novel having to do with Negroes
was full of vice, violence, filth and misery.
This seemed to inspire a whole flock of auto
biographies by lot of people who seemed to
be competing with each other to see who could
dig up the slummiest past.
Now, this shock treatment may have been
necessary for some people, and maybe it did
some good. But frankly, we couldn't see it. 1t
was, in fact, rather degrading to be constant
ly identified with people who had not raised
their heads above the slime. We found this irk-
some because we knew it was not a completely
honest portrayal of Negro life We felt that
this type of literature, while awakening some
people to existing evils, actually gave Negroes
little cause for pride, and gave white people to
little cause for pride, and gave white people lit
tie cause to think Negroes were deserving of
any better conditions
But now somebody seems to have lifted the
iron curtain, and the air feels good Just this
past season, we have seen some literature on
the Negro-most of it biographical-Which
gives US lift and proves what we knew all a.
long: that whatever his surroundings or cir
