The Miami times. [volume] (Miami, Fla.) 1923-current, 1957-01-05

For us as a group - 1856
has been a most propitious year.
A year in which many important
changes in the basic fabric of
American living began taking
form. The pattern of repercus-
sion to these changes as it shapes
UP at present exposes us to flu
ture filled with uncertainties in
the days just ahead. SO in this
time Of "stock-taking" so to
speak, it is difficult not to re-
view the past year, at least, and
use its experiences good and bad,
out of which to build plans for
the future.
The Negroes firm resolve at the
outset of this new year should be
to redouble all efforts on all
fronts to hasten the day of h / S
complete emancipation. MoreSo
now than ever before, perhaps, his
civil rights top the list of cur
rent discussions in high places;
and with equal ardor in other
quarters opposition forces are ar
rayed in a death struggle to keep
these rights from him through the
use of subterfuge, intimidation
and violence.
We have for many years been
lamenting the fact that our lead
ership has always come short OF
the mark - has always been fill
ed with misgivings. But, alas, this
pattern too is also changed as we
venture forth, as witness the SAN
guine conduct of pressure groups
, and the loyal following OF intre-
pid leadership in areas where re-
sistance to the high courts de-
cisions has been most pronounced.
This makes ii encumbent upon
the rank and file to make the
Fellowship" as imposing and eff
fective as the leadership. This
resolution should lead the list o!
those we make for ourselves in
1857.
The cycle of time and events
of the recent past offer much en-
couragement to the Negro in his
search for the dawn of a e W
day in the land of his heritage
And so this is no time to remain
static or to lose ground.
Within the past year the courts
of this land to a degree never
before attained, have spoken out
forcefully and clearly in all cases
coming before them involving our
legal status. But favorable court
decisions alone are not enough
Into our own hands rests much
Of the responsibility for seeing
that all Of these court decisions
are fully carried out. In 1857 we
