HAROLD WRIGHT. Proprietor

By Alfred Willi
When will we aw en to the down­
right bottom line of our (Blac) atu
. in the United State of America. What
i the honest reali y of our p ition in
the American Society?
I wi h to hare a fe observation
of min , pertaining to the pre ent politi­
cal situation, with you.
Mr. Mondale elected a oman
I
his running mate vic -pre ident candi-
date. This was done to attract vote to
him elf. He also made additional point ,
in much as e i Italian-Am rican
and Roman Catholic by religion. All
of the e are voting BlDC and th y do
vote tho BlDC . PI d not
fool you elf th t th Y
I am not t ting th t
Italian Am ri an I c th
an organization but b .
of them in each t
D
The vice-president candidate h ap-
pointed 3 white worn n and 1 whit
male to head her campaign committee.
This howed beyond a doubt that h
has no regard for th Black vote, here
is her re pect for her Black sisters?
The Italian Ameri an g vernor of the
state of e York and the Italian Am ri­
can Senator of the U.S. Sen tor - hav
poken of the pride, bein felt in th
Italian-American c mmunities over their
recent political gain and their c mment
added that this political recognition
was bound to happen. All it take is tim
and envolvement in the affair of our
country.
The sad thing about the e remark
is, that the people. they are speaking of
for the m t part did not c me here to
the U.S. until the turn of th 20th
Century (th 1890's thru 1920's they
even p k of minoritie having turns
of becoming of ge and joinin the
main stream - the Iri h and other minor­
itie were made mention of, but not on
word abo_ut Black America's turn.
The Italian-American took le than
100 yrs. to arrive. Black-Am rican
are yet struggling to get a foot on the
ladd rafter 3 yr . of blood eat
and tears, envolvement in the affairs
of thi country. Let us com hom to
ichigan.
Governor Blanchard ted that h
wa concerned only with ho the white
voters was going for the Black vote was
no problem.
Why is it not a problem? Just hat
platform to promote th Economic
elfare of ichigan's Black American
has he promoted.
All of this should tell us something.
Blac America is in economic chao
and our very salvation is t stake.
The world i changing all round us
(it' a E BALL GAME) new territor­
ies are being taked out and unle e
ant to be tenant on orne one else '
turf, we had better be e tablishing orne
of our own.
Rev. Je Jac n tated it i our tim .
I agree, but only hen e decide it i
ourtirne,andmakeit o.
