I worry because daily I see you sliping downward into the bubbling slush of immorality and degradation. You carry, clutched in your hands, deadly instruments of self-destruction and death! You have embraced drug worship; you have engaged in the mind blowing experiences of other cultures. You have strayed, like lost sheep, into the heroin houses of this coun try and have indulged in this ritual of fools. Your bright eyes have become dulled; your feet stumble uncertainly through this land of your fathers. Your strong hands tremble as they reach eagerly for the deadily poisons held out to you. You have offered your bodies as living sacrifices to the M aster of Darkness. You have pawned your souls. My children, I am disturbed about you. I am disturbed because you have learned the language of the forked ton gue. You smile with your lips and curse with your heart. You mouth “brother" and “sister" while your soul remains cold to the meanings of the words. You have learned to use the deadly poisons of deceit and hatred. You have oursed your mother; have slain your father. You have deserted your wives and denied your offspring. You have forsaken the instructions of your fore bears. You have slandered your ancestors. M y children, I weep for you. I weep because you have set at naught the sacri fices of your fathers. You have made a mockery of their years of bondage by making game of the inheri tance they left you - the in h e rita n c e of fre e d o m . Their toils and labors mean nothing to you. You have ridiculed their unwavering faith in the Supreme Libera tor. You have placed un desirable labels on your sires. You have shamed your peo ple. I saw you emerging, a strong, steadfast people, re fined by suffering; streng thened by adversity. I en visaged you pointing the way to a world of hate-blinded, w ar weary people - lead ing them to true brother- provided strong leadership and yet will not allow the director to take that role. Bostic feels they have harmed the program by allowing the staff to contact them per sonallv with their gripes rather than going through proper procedures and by allow ing decisions to be made around the director rather than through him. M E D IA also has had dil ficu lties with the Model Cities Agency staff. Bostic considered the role of Model Cities staff is to monitor the program and insure that it meets the requirements of its contract wih the city; but the Model Cities staff has a tte m p te d to become in volved in the internal affairs of the agency. Threats huve been made, the Model Cities has presented a negative picture of M E D IA , and they recommended termination of the program at the end of h<M>d. Instead, you have joined the ranks of the rabble. You have deserted your goals. You have united with the foul mouthed shout ers. you have flouted tradi tion; have ridiculed conven tion. You have disgraced your race. M y children, I pray for you. I pray because I am the mother who bore you and I still love you. I pray because 1 have hopes that you will put aside your tools of death. I beg you, forsake this road to destruction with all its allure. Return to the path you left. There you will find the respect you lost. There, you will rediscover love of your God, your country, and love of me. Take heed, my children, and put down the acts of inhumanity which you copied from those blinded by fear, ignorance, and greed. Come back to freedom while there is still time. the Third Action Year (June 15. 19731. The Model Cities Citizen's P lan nin g Hoard, however, funded the program for the first 8 months of the Fourth Action Year. According to Bostic, rela tions between M E D IA and Model Cities have worsened since Charles Jordan resigned as director of Model Cities Jordan was "amenable to ward programs, understand ing of their purpose and problems".
