10 million for

WA HI GTOM - The U.S.
Department of Agriculture has
awarded $10 million to state Bxten-
ion Services to establish and con­
tinue "Youth At Risk" programs in
targeted communities acro the na­
tion.
On what branch of the ub­
[ect do the people of this
country need light? Must I un­
dertake to prove that the lave
is a man? That point is con­
ceded already. Nobody
doubts it. The slaveholders "Extension' National Initiative

This is the second consecutive
year Congress has provided funds
for Youth At Risk programs. In fis­
cal 1991, $7.5 million in federal
funds supported 70 projects nation­
wide. The $10 million funding for­
fiscal 1992 will allow for the con­
tinued support of 68 of these
programs, and for the creation of 25
additional projects.
THE MANHOOD of the
slave is conceded. It is ad­
mitted in the fact that
Southern statue books are
covered wih enactments for­
bidding, under severe fines
and penalties, the teaching of
the slave to read or to write.
When you can point to any,
such laws in reference to the
beasts of the field, then I may .
consent to argue the manhood
of the slave. When the dogs in
yourstreets, when the fowls of
the air, when � cattle on your
hills, when the fish of the sea,
and the reptile that crawl,
shall be unable to distinguish
the slave from a brute, will I
argue with you that the slave

"This program bas helped lay the
