Unity Of Negro Jewish
Struggle for Equal Rights
Urged BY Dr.: m. 1. King

THE irrational hatred mott.
vating the white supremacist
Is as readily turned against Jew,
Quaker, Liberal and One-World-
er as it is against the Negro.
Some bigots have burned the
homes and churches of Negroes;
some have smeared swastikas on
synagogues and thrown bombs
at them.
"Our common fight is against
the enemies of democracy, and
our glory is that we are cho-
sen to prove that courage is a
characteristic Of oppressed peo-
pie. however cynically and bru-
tally they are denied full equal
lty and freedom"

Non Violent Attitude Disappearing
Among South Africans, Says "yhow"

The South African Negro has
lost his taste for passive resist
ance. The result, bound to come
soon, can only be violence.
The observation is that of An
thony Sampson, noted British
author and authority on South
Africa. Writing in the new issue
of SHOW, The Magazine of the
Arts, Sampson states his con-
yiction that "the moderation and
patience of the black South Afri-
cans, which has astonished white
liberals and exasperated their al
lies in the rest of the continent" /"
has at last been exhausted.
"Since 1960," Sampson writes,
1.-The African leaders have become
increasingly convinced that only
one road can lead them out of
their impasse-the road of viol-
cnce. The debate is no long
cr between violence and non-
violence; as 1t is between degree
OF violence.
Even Chief Albert Luthuli, the
veteran African leader stepped in
the Christian missionary tradi-
ton, who won the 1860 Nobel
Peace Prize and is now prohibited
from leaving his home village,
is no longer welded to the policy
of violence"
