Beyond Rights The Issue
OF Human Dignity

Editorial In LIFE, Muy ~, 1869
The Negro himself no longer believes In the good
faith Of white Americans-H, indeed, he ever could
have. JAMES BALDWIN, The Fire Next Time,
1858.
The problem has taken a dimension
which directly concerns every American, and the dis
turbing observations of the eloquent Negro essayist
James Baldwin (see PIP. s1-sO) sum it up well
anything yet said. The Birmingham riots did not
add the new dimension; they merely supplied proof
that it existed Very recently the Negroes fight for
equality has achieved powerful new thrust The word
now has, for him, a more immediate meaning
than it had six months ago. let alone nine years ago
when the Supreme Court desegregated the schools
in law at least. There is new impatence in the
land, a cynicism among Negroes toward es-
abHshed legal procedures in the light of past dis
appointments This is true both in the South and in
the North, where discrimination works more subtly
than it does in Birmingham but still illustrates the
Negro.
AS for Birmingham, it's tough city. It did not
exist at the time Of the Civil War but it has
long had the reputation Of being the worst big city
in the South in the Of relations Possibly
because of its industrial character, it has lot Of
hardnosed types both black and white. 1t has also
had headn- thesand political leadership Considering
what is going in this country, not to mention the
Of Alabama's Governor Wallace and Birmingham's
Public Safety Commissioner Bull" Connor sound
positively ichthyosaurian.
But Wallace and Connor not all of Alabama,
any more than young toughs the whole of the
Birmingham Negro community. The fact that mod
crate white businessmen moved with resolution to
reach accommodation with DR.. Martin Luther
King underscores this point. Until segregation
bombs blasted the home Of DR.. Kings brother and
Negro motel there was-in spite of Bull Connor's
police dogs-an element Of restraint both sides,
And even after the bombings a great many whites
and Negroes worked, at much personal risk, all
desperate night to get the riots under control Birm
ingham city police acquitted themselves with con-
siderable credit in coping with outright hoolganism
And day later DR.. King visiting poolrooms to
repeat his warning to the Negroes violence Is not
only immoral but impractical"
Even If the agreements hammered out by Ne
groes and whites in Birmingham can be made to
stick in the face of widespread white hostility and
open Negro skeptcism, impadence will make itself
felt elsewhere and not just in the Deep South either
The fallout effects Of Birmingham quickly showed
as flash Negro violence took place in Nashville,
Chicago and New York. Therefore there is terrible

LIFE Editorial Should
Have Great Impact

Editors Note: The editorial reprinted below is
from the May "a edition of LIFE Magazine. Its
theme, subjects and conclusions will not be new
to readers of this newspaper and of the 100
Negro newspapers thruout the us. What LIFE
says, has been said time and time again in the past
1876 years since the first Negro newspaper spoke
out against the American white mans treatment Of
the Negro.
LIFE Magazine is perhaps the most powerful
national publication in influence and its masterful
editorial will have great impact on the nation which
reads it. 1t comes at a time when America,
pecally white America should listen, take stock and
action to rid this nation of what Gunnar Myrdal has
so aptly labeled The American Dilemma"

a warrant with larceny in a store
after he walked into a westside
market, stuffed a three-pound ham
valued at $3.50 under his jacket
and walked out Of the market
without paying for the meat.
Munday was apprehended out
side, where police arrested him
and confiscated five additional
hams that he had in his posses
sion, which also had been stolen.
The officers said Munday had the
hams in a carpenters apron tied
around his waist.
Police said he admitted the theft
Of the hams. They quoted Munday
saying: I bought the carpenters
apron because I had been told by
shopEfters that 1t was ideal for
store boosting.

Famous Authority on Problems OF Love & Marriage
Lei Both These Fellows Alone
Dear Beatrice Fairfax:
I'm a girl of Is and have two problems.
The first is that I've been going with a boy II for two years and
during this time we've been intimate twice. Now we've been broken
up for three months.
Il still like him a great deal and / know he still likes me because
he tells his best friend about it all the time. He went with my best.
friend for three days, then he found out she didn't want hin He's
always very friendly with me and always asks me if / want anything
or if ! need money to 60 to the games. !.
Whenever that best friend of mine sees us talking, she'll come
up and speak to him. How can stop her from doing this? She knows
we're trying to 60 back together, but she doesn't want me to have

grade as am and the same age. Recently he was going with a girl
two years older than he was, but she didn't like him SO she quit him
and that made him think all girls are the same. Can you think of.
some ways I can change his mind? He likes me also, but is afraid
to trust me.
If you don't think / should try to get my first boy friend back,
will you give me a few hints on trying to forget him?
Confused
don't think you need any hints at all on how to forget the first
boy friend, since you tell me you're already interested in another,
one. Also. you'd be making a serious mistake to try and persuade
hinSto come back to- you as I'm afraid it would be all too likely the
two of you might repeat your reprehensible behavior. The offhand
way in which you mention it carries no suggestion whatever that
you regret it. So my advise is that you consider any close frindship
with him at an end.
Naturally, I don't mean that you should act dscourteousy to-
ward him or anything Like that. Just treat him like any other casu-
al acquaintance, have no long talks with him and let it go at that.
As for fhe second one who doesn't trust girls any more, treat
him nicely, too, but don't make any special effort to attract him He's
probably getting plenty Of pleasure out Of feeling sorry for himself
and telling himself 1al girls are the same He's very immature
and you'd be silly to pay any attention to him.
After what occurred while you were going steady, I thing it
would be much better for you not have any one special boy friend
for a while, but to go out with as many friends as you can, keeping
busy with all the activities boys and girls enjoy and avoiding going
off alone with any boy.

Patterson'S personal sacri-
flee turned out to be cruelty ul1-

hit only 10 per cent Of his
