~ FDITORIAL ~
Apathy And The Civil Rights Bill

One of the dictionary definitions of the word. apathy is;
~Indifference to what-appeals to feelings or intérest.~ We
have noted with concern.the interest shown in the current
battle for the Civil Rights Bill by a number of ~just.plain
citizens.~~ The Negro public seem to fall into~one of three
categories~(1)~those who listen to. the radio and read
everything relative to the legislative wrangle, complain and
ao nothing; (2) those who try to be informed on the C. R.
Bill for the sake of being able to discuss the topic of the
day; and (3) those who are not concerned about civil rights
nor any other kind of rights.

This seemingly apathetic attitude towards the Civil
Rights Bill stems from the feeling of what is the use.
~We have tried for years and years but with little or no. a Bg es
success, and then, too, we have the NAACP to look out et ~ ~Ee. aR Ree FOOD MA RI KETS

One person offeted the following as an excuse, ~Our
minister hasn~t mentioned anything about the Civil ~Rights
Bill. If it was really important, he would have told us about
it in church.~ Another said, ~~Let them people down there.
take care of thémselves; they don~t have to: live in that uncivilized part ~of ' the country. I have plenty: of problems of
my own.~ ~

' The group who heard the latter comment laughed_-until
an individual spoke up. He blasted! the childish attitude of
the group and reminded them that they were not ~free~ as
long as any of us are relegated to. the role of. second-class
citizenship.

He lashed out at this newspaper, the local branch of
the NAACP, leaders, including ministers, for not attempting to create a positive public concern for the C..R. Bill.

~Before the Negro can expect to enjoy the status of a

To which we say, ~Amen.~ Apathy towards political
issues and responsibility is a sign of immaturity,
