Mississippi March:
Militant
EDITOR'S NOTE: A mood of
militancy and impatience runs
through the words of young
Negroes making the Mississippi
march. It is another problem for
civil rights leaders and com-
pounds divisions within the
movement over the direction,
meaning and motive of the
march.
By DON McKEE
GREENWOOD, Miss. (P)-The
marchers crowded around a leader
alongside U.S. 51 and chanted new
words to an old song.
"I'm comin', I'm comin', but
my head ain't bending low.
"I'm an American-a new, new,
new Negro!"
At a darkened campsite near
Grenada that night, a Negro sat
on the fender of a car and spoke
rapidly, angrily:
"It won't do to pass another law
as a sop to the Negro. There
would be riots upon riots, regard-
less of what people who are sup-
posed to be Negro leaders say."
Somber Prediction,
This somber prediction came
from Ernest Thompson, 33, a big,
muscular man who is vice presi-
dent of the Deacons for Defense
at Jonesboro, La. The Deacons
are an armed organization; they
keep guns in their cars.
"We came with the idea of pro-
viding protection if necessary,"
Thompson said.
"We're not going down the road
intimidating anybody, but at no
time does a Deacon intend to get
his head whipped."
New Militancy
Young Negroes from Mississippi
and elsewhere voiced similar de-
termination, reflecting a new type
of militancy that flies in the face
of the nonviolence preached by
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., one
of the march leaders,
The long,hot walk--its destina-
tion is Jackson, Miss.-has at-
tracted all types, and its objectives
depend on who is doing the talk-
ing.
Unlike the Selma to Montgom-
ery, Ala., march of 1965, which
moved straight to its objective,
the Mississippi march has been
a traveling rally, passing through
10 towns in its first 13 days. Every
night there is a rally, either under
the tents or in a church.
225 Miles
The Alabama pilgrimage was
well organized and kept to a time
table. There were no towns, only
a lonely countryside. It covered
only 50 miles as opposed to 225
between Memphis and Jackson.
The marchers were more serious
and restrained than those in Mis-
sissippi. The Alabama group was
firmly under control of King's
Southern Christian Leadership
Conference and there was no di-
vision of leadership. They were
united in their objectives, primar-
ily to reach the Alabama capital
for a huge demonstration to spur
enactment of the voting rights
bill.
The Mississippi march began as
something of an accident, result-
ing from the ambush ofnJamesH.
Meredith 13 days ago near Her-
nando, Miss. Meredith, wounded
by three blasts of birdshot from
a shotgun, said Friday in New
York he would return to Missis-
sippi tomorrow.
Agree to Nonviolence
King said the Deacons who
joined the Mississippi trek were
laying down their guns. But
Thompson said that while he had
agreed UO nonviolence in the
march, he was not excluding self
defense.
"W e w 11l try everything,"
Thompson said. "At least the man
won't say we didn't try. But we
have been on this nonviolent di-
rect action for a pretty good while.
I think it's about time for a
change.
King-No Violence
"If the white man won't listen,
maybe we ought to start killing.
Then he might listen."
If King's way does not work,
"he is going to have to join us,"
said Thompson. When told of that,
King said he would never embrace
violence, and reiterated that
marchers had agreed to non-
violence.
But King did not hear some of
the talk among marchers.
One man trudged along the
pavement in Batesville and talked
about the trucks that had driven
dangerously close to the marchers.
"Damn sure better kill me if
he hits me," the man said. "If he
don't, I'll pull him out of that
car."
'Fight for Rights'
Nathaniel Buckley, 18, of Bates-
ville, was asked why he joined the
march.
"I think I should fight for my
rights."
Would he fight if attacked by
whites?
"If they hit me, yes, I

appeal to moral values and they
document the hypocrisy of their
elders extensively.
All this has a special message
to young men and women who are
in search of a set of standards
truly their own and which they
can defend. Many students are
uncomfortable about their beliefs,
or lack of them, and their young
colleagues who speak with such
moral conviction and such as-
surance, have, as a result, a con-
siderable impact on them.
The moral confusion in the
adult world doesn't help. It is
responsible for the fact that the
student, groping for standards of
behavior, exudes an unhappiness
with things as they are. Many
students are particularly disap-
pointed with the faculty for failing
to help them to find meaning for
their lives.
Influence on World
College students today have had
an unusual amount of influence
on the world around them. In
their homes, as children, they par-
ticipated in decisions about family
purchases and vacations. In ele-
mentary and high schools, they
had an increasing effect on the
way these institutions are govern-
ed. In fact, universities have not
kept pace with these trends. For
many, becoming a university stu-
dent has meant a more subordi-
nate role, with less influence than
they had had before coming.
Much of the character of the
present determination to influence
the academic life reflects, I think,
the fact that the mechanisms of
student participation are inade-
quate and the fact that areas in
which participation is sought in-
elude the most hallowed, and the
most earnestly protected from stu-
dent interference, namely, aca-
demic affairs.
This is not to exaggerate stu-
dent interests in dictating curri-
culum or telling professors how
and what to teach. Indeed, our
experience has been that students
may in fact neglect even the best
opportunities to debate and dis-
cuss academic issues with the fac-
ulty or "The Establishment." They
do, however, want to have visible,
viable, and effective machinery
for stating their views.
I foresee an increase in the
development of such machinery,
particularly in the schools, col-
leges and departments of the uni-
versity. The techniques that are
most likely to work are those that
involve students in consultation
rather than in decision making.
What students think, is very im-
portant and students are expert
in what they think. Unquestion-
ably, we must develop more tech-
niques to ascertain informed and
responsible student opinion.
American institutions and the
society generally have been
strengthene'd by the annual infu-
sion of graduates of American
universities and colleges. Over the
years they have provided crucial
skills and a basic commitment to
the republic,
Their attitudes, values, and their
attributes of mind and heart have
given our country great flexibility,
resourcefulness and a readiness to
assume world-wide leadership.
This generation will be no excep-
tion; indeed those of us who work
with them on a daily basis con-
fidently expect even more from
them than their predecessors have
given.
Aspirations and Reality
Many of us have observed that
this generation is concerned about
the discrepancy between the as-
pirations of our society and its
performance. My colleagues in an
excellent study observe that "as
these students see it, while the
dominant group claims to cham-
pion freedom, religion, patriotism,
and morality, it produces and
condones slums, racial segregation,
migrant farm laborers, false ad-
vertising, American economic im-
perialism and the bomb."
No one can tell whether disil-
lusionment is more acute in this
generation; I think it unlikely
that it is. The difference, if there
is an important one, seems to me
to be in the way young people
respond to the inevitable distance
between human aspirations and
human behavior.
The distinctive character of to-
day's campus lies in the special
use of the techniques of political
and social power as the means of
response. There is a great appeal
in attacking the organization from
outside it, in negotiating from a
position of power. Basic to this
theory of social action is the pro-
position that institutions do not
change from within if left to
themselves. The people in them
are satisfied with things as. they
are, are fearful of changing them,
are powerless to alter them, or in
fact act out the roles the institu-
tion demands.
Sit-Ins Not Suitable
I see signs that students are
recognizing that-however useful
they may behunder certain cir-
cumstances-the techniques of the
strike, the boycott, the sit-in are
not in the long run suitable for
educational institutions, nor In-
deed as the methods of choice for
instiutions in the society at large.
This insight is coming slowly,
and it could be speeded up in two
ways: on the campus, by improv-
ing the processes for change, par-
ticularly by\ making the decision-
making apparatus more sensitive
to student opinions and ideas. Off
the campus, in business, govern-
ment and other social institutions,
by providing more evidence that
an individual with ideas can make
a difference, that there is a re-
siliency and a flexibility in "The
Establishment."

Ypsilanti, the home of the Big
Blue "Y." Why? It is the location
of the Ypsilanti Greek Theatre
and it is also the home of Eastern
Michigan University.
Also in Ypsilanti on Michigan
Ave. (next to Haabs) there is a
shop called Kreig's Kraft. In the
window are two signs: one adver-
tising the big blue "Y" Greek
Theatre, the other advertising the
Eastern Michigan faculty art
show. Shown here are composi-
tions in paint, charcoal and clay
by the EMU art faculty.
Alvin Loving Jr., whose draw-
ings are done in multi-colored
pastel, works to create an op-art
effect with gridded, criss-cross
patterns drawn over brightly col-
ored forms and figures.
In contrast are the paintings
by Dorothy Lamming in which
subtle colors are worked into an
abstract composition. The colors
with which she works are mostly
soft greens, blues and reds.
Jan Field, who also works with
abstract design, exhibits very ac-
tive compositions which work
through and against each other
by use of fine brush strokes and
thick texture. His main effect is
that of sharp figures moving
through space.
Use of glowing colors and mov-
ing solid objects through space
are displayed by Miriam Brumer.
Miss Brumer's paintings are me-
tallic colored shimmering squares
which appear to be in motion

integrated yellows, whites and
oranges. There is a certain ex-
urberance in these paintings in
spite of the compartively geo-
metric design.
Edward Eichel has used lead
pencil in sensitive drawings of
interior designs and figures whose
delicate lines work to create a
mood.
A stained glass effect is pro-
duced by the vividly colored prints
of Ruth Weisberg who displays
three cuts run off by a special
method which allows for multi-
colored designs. Her woodcuts
produce a certain flourescent ef-
feet which is used as effective il-
lustration of mythical and poetic
scenes.
There are also two potters ex-
hibiting in the show: Suzanne
Stephenson and John Loree, who
both exhibit richly colored deli-
cate pot designs, using subtle
toned metallic colors with an ef-
fective dripping and blending
technique.
The exhibit will be running un-
til July 2; it is worthwhile to
those who visit the big "Y," whe-
ther or not their intentions be
