Is The Negro ~Pushing Too Hard?

It has been 94 years since Abraham Lincoln signed the
Emancipation Proclamation, yet it is declaréd-solemnly by.
southern politicians that the Negro is ~going og Fast~ and
~pushing too hard.~

Even many so-called friends of the Negro. ~gre urging
him to be moderate in his demand for. civil rights.

Well, the Negro has been the soul of moderation. He
has been patient to the point of resignation. ~~

As he looks back upon his painfully slow pace, at thé
~mean obstacle s he has had to overcome, at his crawling gait
through the~ courts; winning one by one the citizenship
rights that are automatically bestowed upon others, the Negro wonders:-what moderation can mean.

Does moderation mean movement at all# ~Must the
Negro wait a referendum of his fellows before he dares

to speak 2 word or take a step? Is it extremielsrn fo go fo.
court, ri, and-ask~satisfactioty of the verdict? -
Is it extrenie ~demand of the elected officials that they

say the word and do the things ~that will protect ~and secure *
freedom and equality of all citizens?

Usually. it requires about thirty minutes. to resister as a
student at the University of Alabama. Miss Autherjne Lucy
needed two years. That~s going pretty slow, to. ay. ~the least.

But even as the Negro calmly and patieritly

rights through constitutional action, the segregationists are
resorting to violence, economic pressures, intimidation, pun
itive legislative action, injunction, resolutions and all man- |,
ner of actions, whether openly illegal or cloaked in the.

raiment of legality, in order to prevent him from thé full
enjoyment of the blessings -of freedom.

In the face of fextreme provocation, the Negro has
remainéd calm but nevertheless firm. He has met violence
with non-violence, as in Montgomery, Alabama, where bus

dramatically and successfully invoked the
power of Christian love in combatting evil.
~Through the lowering darkness of the present civil rights
crisis, the light of hope shines true. The Negro knows that
his is a right cause. Justice is on his side. ~

The Negro kniows that God is on his side, ine, And oF
the words of Abraham Lincoln, he hopes fhat he is on

God's side. He knows that he must proceed~and js pro-: ||

ceeding~without hate or rancor. Compassion and understanding are Written on his banners.

But he will not stay his efforts or be stayéd.. fle will:;

not be denied.
