We are entering into a new era of
open and active behavior by
African-Americans against repres­
sion, oppression, and racism by in­
dividuals, institutions, or the
government at all levels.
I am hopeful that the time has come
that the African-American com­
munity will once again become ac­
tive in the struggle to overcome
violence, murder, mayhem, and
self-hate as manifested in the high
rate of Black on Black crime.
Across the country African­
Americans are taking pan in protest
of non-African-Americans who
have killed African-Americans.
The emotional aspects of this type
of killing is well understood and
needed.
However, there has not been
enough of an out cry when Blacks
kill Blacks. When African­
American males stand a greater
hance of being killed' on the
� treet,tha1t Yttt 'baY-
II tletleld of the USA war in Vietnam
or on the battlefield in the, so called,
Middle East.
WHEN YOu.HA VE those type of
conditions and reality, all citizens
must come to grips with and work
to resolve the urban and suburban
death rate of our American male
youth.
We need a short term and long term
plan to address these problems: We
need strong family units. We need
better educational focus. We need
more African-American busi­
nesses, large and small. We need
efforts to enfold and nurture our
male offspring in order for them to
provide for, protect, and build
families with our female offspring.
We need vocal and visible efforts to
make and/or insure that the institu­
tions that exist give the type of ser­
vice that we need, i.e., the local,
state, and federal governments.
'We are seeking proper police
protection, justice in the courts, jus­
tice from the Justice Department
enforcement of laws and codes by
state government, etc., for food
stores and the produce and products
they sell.
Contact the respective unit of
government and lodge your com­
plaint and/or concerns with those
units. In addition, join Operation
PUSH and work on a long range
plan to bring lasting change and
positive results. in the conditions
above.
PUSH for Humane Alternatives to
the Welfare System
Nineteen hundred eighty-eight was
a year plagued with a number of
plant closings throughout the na­
tion.
In an effort to address the massive
crises growing out of worker dis­
location and the increased.number
of worker complaints, PUSH
created a plant closing project
working in conjunction with the
Midwest Center for Labor Re­
search.
PUSH met with management and a
number of workers from Sears
Roebuck, Stewart Warner, General
Electric and others in an effort to
obtain alternative employment for,
the di placed workers. PUSH mo-
. bilized consumers around the na­
tion to watch for early warning
igns of plant clo ings.

President of the Wav�rly Block, Club,
said her area had special problems. Her
neighborhood' dumpster w rusted
