depth of ignorance he expresses"
All he had he lost in Africa.
He lost so much, mainly his re-
spect, which is the reason he has
nothing now. If he is to ever find
it, or regain it, it must be done
through Africa. Of all the people
in the world, the American Negro
should be the student well-versed
in Africa. Yet, everybody except
him is concerned and exploring, and
exploiting it. The American Negro
is ashamed of Africa and is slow
to recognize it as the place of his
origin. He knows nothing of it's
glories and wonders and the great
ness of its peoples. Our grave
need is to know Africa, her past,
present and future.
Nobody has more to gain in At
RIGA than the American Negro, not
even the natives themselves. Any
group of people who cannot point
to mother land, ruled by their
own people, is lost at sea without
compass, and without hope. They
are at the mercy of changing and
unpredictable waves. They are dis
respected and looked upon a OBJ
jects of contempt. That has been
the plight of the American Negro
since he first set foot on American
soil, And he wonders why. The
answer is the lack CT mother land
ruled by his people.
But thank God, the long and
dark night has passed and the sun
+ has gloriously arisen on a new day;
yet it is still the early morning
hours. Free and independent coun-
tries and governments are being
/ born.
This gives the American Negro
a new emancipation which means
as much, if not more, than his free
dom from American body slavery
This new emancipation sets mind
soul and spirit at liberty. As stat
ed in another article, Nigeria is
engaged in taking the final steps
to independence by April 2, 1860

Progressive Africans
The people are not trying to
change their color. They are proud
and satisfied to be Africans, black
Africans, but intelligent, free and
progressive Africans. Here in At
RIGA the sought and denied respect

you cannot buy or force. Let us
