"That's Jack, the
He's always been a Middle-of-the-Roader."

At the turn of the century, there
was a movement afoot to establish
an all-Negro community.
This materialized at Boley,
Okla. But when Oklahoma became
a state, the Negro's status was
challenged and what originally
was tolerance by whites turned to
hatred. resulting in lynchings and
threats to the Negroes' security.
Thereupon, a self-styled chief of
the Negroes, Alfred Charles Sam,
undertook to gather up dissilu-
sioned Negroes for settlement in
a new paradise. They went to Gal-
veston, Tex., Portland, Me., and
New York, before a few sailed for
Africa.
This dramatic story is related by
Prof. William E. Bittle of the Uni-
versity of Oklahoma and Prof. Gil-
bert Geis of Los Angeles State Col-
lege in "The Longest Way Home—
Chief Alfred C. Sam's Back-to-
Africa Movement," published by
Wayne State University Press.
It is a moving account of a very
vital undertaking and of a great
dream and is especially relevant as
background material for the study
of the movement for civil rights.
