The above words were spoken by Benjamin Franklin many years ago and they are just as true today as they ever were. These historic words serve as a warning to our group; that we must either hang together or we will be hanged sepa rately. In this age of co-operative effort, no man or race of men can hope to survive if they expect to do their job single-handed and alone. It is just not being done that way any more. Every injustice of the white race toward the Colored may be logically traced back to intra-racial distrust with the Colored race. Our Group is hated because too many of ns hate ourselves. Take the Jew for example. The Jew cannot be insulted. Henry Ford, the auto magnate, waged a tirade of abuse against the Jews until the Jews not only ceased buying his cars —but influenced others not to buy them. Now, Mr. Ford is a close friend of the Jew. Had Mr. Ford or any other business firm slandered and abused the Negro as he did the Jew, no such united action would have taken place.
