With an increasingly solid legal floor to stand

but surely the long-neglected Negro population is
beginning to get the unseparated and equal public
education to which it is entitled and to move and
mingle without restraint.
Bus now the overriding question becomes:
what do 20 million Negro American citizens do
with these rights as they become secured? Their
high school diplomas, their college degrees,
their graduate doctOrates are going to have to
be put to better use than to provide the subject

there is special responsibility here for manage

not hold work in the palm of
