THEME OF TWO LATE BOOKS;

News last week reviewed three books-two slavery and

"BIack Like Me"

The third book, BLACK Like Me"
(EIoughton Mifflin, $500, is auth
ored by novelist John Howard
Griffin.
In the opening chapter of AN
tislavery," a massive and work.
manlike history Of chattel slavery
in America, DR.. Dumond writes
1--WE abolished slavery, but we left
the freed Negroes to their own re-
sources after a time. The white
population of many sections, cling
ing tenaciously to the belief in rae
ial inequality, soon reduced them
to a second-class citizenship, which
is and always has been a modified
form of slavery from colonial
times to the present"
"Antislavery" is the end product
of more than 80 years of research
and is repeatedly" the best one
volume history of the antislavery
movement ever written" In view
of the current Negro struggle for
equal rights, it could be the most
important work of history to ap-
pear this year, said reviewer Brad
ley in the Daily News. Together
with it's photography published
separately for libraries and schol-
ars) it constitutes a landmark in
the literature of freedom, Bradley
said.
"Anti-Slavery RefOrmers"
DR.. Dumond's main thesis is
centered upon the antislavery re-
formers, beginning with such 18th
century figures as the noble Quak-
er John Woolman and the Virginia
slave holder George Mason, who
opposed slavery and refused to
sign the Constitution because it
compromised on slavery, and con-
tinuing with the 10th century lead
ers: Theodore Weld, William Lloyd
Garrison, Wendell Phillips, John
Greenleaf Whittier and others.
After tracing the economic
background of the slave trade, in
Europe and in America, the author
shows how the immortality of slav-
cry affected the whole spectrum
of American society - the homes,
the schools, the churches, the leg
islative halls and the entire body
polite.
Relived in the book, is the drama
of the AboHtionist movement, the
court battles, etc, along with the
underground railway to freedom,
the men and women-black and
white-who dedicated their lives
to winning freedom for the Negro.
DR.. Dumond's bleak historical
record of human injustice, heaped
upon the Negro during his crusade
for freedom, is aptly illustrated in
John Howard Griffin's shocking
book BLACK Like Me-" which is
white mans story of what it is
like to be a Negro in the South
today.

Passed AS A Negro

Griffin is the white man, with
the help of chemical darkened his
skin, and passed himself off as a
Negro to see and feel the racial
situation in Louisiana, Mississippi,
Alabama and Georgia. The story
was published in part in Sepia
magazine.
The book tells of the attitudes
of the white people with whom the
author came in contact as a Ne
gro, the insults, the brutality and
threats of violence. Not to men,
ton the difficulty of buying food,
getting water to drink, use of the
bathrooms, getting job, etc.
Reviewer Van Allen Bradley
wrote 1T is unfortunate, I think,
that this book is often vulgar; it
would have had just as much force
without his explicit handling Of
certain sections on sexual atti-
tudes. Nevertheless 1t is a power
full and disturbing document that
ought to be read both North and
South"

Tissue Culture
Studied at B-CC
In New Course

Cell behavior, growth, and
analysis interest B-CC science
students in new program
called tissue culture" This
project, conducted by Mrs. Doris
Hadary, enables 10 students to
grow and study live cells in
their own laboratory.
THE 10 students are sharing
5 Eubicles," says Mrs. Hadary.
1.-THE whole thing is very asep-
tic - everyone must wear a
white coat, and students work
under glass. Last year Joel
Klein grew cancer cells. He and
David Osborne are active direc-
tors of the program this year.
Now we're incubating eggs to
get embryo cells at different
stages and observe them live.
We're especially interested in
the beating of the heart.
Zone of the latest things in
biological research is to grow
cells outside of an organism"
she continued. Some expert
ments determine proper nu-
trients, some chemical compos-
ition, and some explore the
growth of disease for therapy.
These experiments would be i'm
possible for us to do on the
whole organism.
1.-THE tissue-culture lab is val
liable, since the cell is the basis
of research. The value to the
students is first of all, to learn
research methods and technique.
Also, they learn the physiology
and biochemistry of the cell"
Mrs. Hadary said she got the
idea for the course from a school
on the West Coast with a much
larger program.
