as His Majesty the Emperor clear
ly stated, one of the many objec-
tives of the May summit will be
concerned with the complete en-
ancipation of the continent.
By and large, the mere meeting
of all the independent African
states is a bold stroke in the field
of African unity.
The May summit, constituting as
it will, the most important con-
clave of its kind in the history of
the continent, will bring together
ideas, problems, plans and aspira-
tons of more than 100000, 900 per-
sons.
The heads of states also repre-
sent the various sections and areas
of the continent. AS such, it will
provide springboard for practical
and fortnight proposals concern
ing the problems that face the 80
nations and the continent as a
whole.

the approaching African Heads of

PREVENTION during a recent press
conference, His Imperial Majesty
declared that the purpose of the
conference could be reduced to
three salient points:
First, to speed independence for
territories still in a subserWent
position; secondly, to exchange
views on joint problems, such as
raising the people living stand
ards and improving conditions in
the fields of economy, culture and
politics; thirdly, drawing Of an
African charter for unity.
That the impending summit is
historic is beyond question. AL
though called on the government
level, it is certain that many other
levels of African corporate organ
izations will be represented. True,
observers from dependent Africa
will have "carte blanche" because,

Tragedy At Oxford
Theme Of Pointing
At Boffeq0 Gallery

Tragedy of oxford is detected in
one of the paintings on display at
the Salon des Refuses" which
opened Sunday at the Bottega Art
Gallery, s1S Hennepin Av., Mime
apolis.
Local business executive, Al
Teeter, Jr., was so disturbed by
the falling Of an art professor at
the University Of Mississippi for
producing paintings that satirize
the James Meredith tragedy that
he abandoned his Sunday land
scape painter" role long enough to
produce a white canvas with black
dot in center representing Mere
dith and two bloody hands COM
memorating two people killed that
terrible Sunday night on the school
campus.
The show features 200 works
that failed to be accepted for the
Minnesota Third Biennial held at
the Minneapolis Art Institute. The
Minneapolis Art Institute accepted
only 10 per cent of 1900 entries;
IS being paintings, the balance
sculptures, etchings, photographs,
wood cuts and so forth. These are
not poor works Of art.
Included in the exhibit at the
Bottega Art Gallery is a piece Of
sculpture by the international re-
nowned sculptor, John Rood. The
finest works Of many artists are
on display.
1t looks to many that there is
greater diversity here than to be
found at the biennial itself.

Clayton Powell told them in no
uncertain terms that their day and
time was over.
Powell in a singing, emotion
packed speech delivered to more
than 5000 persons here made a
god of the little man, but espec-
tally the poor, wailing black little
man.
The Congressman kept the thou
sands of persons who overlooked
Shiloh Baptist church and poured
out into streets that had to be
blocked off, waiting for nearly
four hours while he rushed back
from his own Abyssinian Baptist
church in New York where he had
delivered two sermons earlier in
the day.
Without breakfast and without
lunch (according to PowelD the
movie starlike lawmaker ripped
the white mans ignorance Of the
Negro by declaring:
THE great mistake Of the white
man through the centuries has
been his claim and profound belief,
that he knew the Negro"
Said Adam: Even Uncle Tom
led the white man further down
the path Of ethnic ignorance with
his bowling and scraping and yes
sub, boss" and not meaning
word Of it."
Ringing with perspiration and in
a voice which rocked from the
thunder of his lungs, he roared:
But thank God that in this
moment of crisis, as we stand upon
the threshold Of the second CEN
fury, a new Negro voice is being
heard throughout the land, and it
represents the vast majority Of
the black mass"
Although Powell made it plain
that a new Negro voice is now
being heard, he was equally insis-
tent that this own voice was not
q new one, but an old one. What
he Is saying now, he has been
saying all of his life, he contended.
He called on his audience to be
proud of its blaclness and referred
it to a current issue of Newsweek
magazine in which there Is an
article entitled: II like the word
black"
Said Powell: This word I have
used with pride all of my life, and
what I have been saying in recent
days, I have been saying all Of my
life"
He said he learned from Marcus
Carney, the last great leader of a
Negro mass movement, that black
was not a color, but "a way Of
thinking"
Documenting his own black her
itage Of thinking, Powell told his
audience: II wrote this philosophy
almost twenty years ago, in a book
