Brotherhood?
This week is labeled National Brotherhood week. This week
also the Oregon High School International Relations league is
meeting on our campus.
It is ironic that this week our editorial page and our news
columns have been filled with discussions on racial discrimin
ation at the University of Oregon.
Discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion or creed
has traditionally been one of the biggest barriers standing
in the way of a national recognition of brotherhood. It has
traditionally been one of the festering sores of a nation vocally
striving for that brotherhood and the betterment of mankind.
Prejudice is the basic factor lying behind such discrimination.
And prejudice is a lesson which has been long in the learning.
Its deeply embedded in the very fibre of many segments of our
population.
We can express shame for those who walk with prejudice. But
we can never forget that they are people and that we too are
people. And man is such a fragile little animal at times.
We know that laws are but an expression of a society. We
know that writtens laws and rules do not eliminate beliefs and
social mores. We do not like to see such practices driven under
ground. Let us keep a knowledge of our prejudice and our
smallness out in the open where we cannot forget... where we
must face our weakness day after timeless day.
Let us not sit as judges against our brother men. But rather
let us reach out with the weapons on hand to eliminate the prob
lems a law could only coyer up.
Yes, let us reach out, with education, understanding, personal
honesty and firm beliefs the tools we use to eliminate the very
grassroots of American prejudice.
We must stem our impatience. Prejudice is such an awfully
personal thing. It is one man and his conscience. We can only
prod that conscience.
And if we are sincerely interested in eliminating this problem,
we will not antagonize those unfortunates who see a world
through the distortion of their prejudice. Remember, it should
he easier to be discriminated against than to discriminate.
