The New Negro A great many white writers and or »tors, as well as a few of our own. are writing of and discussing “The N’ew Negro". Reading of such, brings a chuckle to tin- writer. A New Negro Who is he ami where is he? If he can he found, there is a splendid opportun itv for Mime one in our race with the showmanship of a Rickard ar d the philosophy of Rarnum, to parade this New Negro" before the public. The Negro is not “New or there a “New Negro' During the past year and a half of "depression" which has caused a premium to be placed on "ahili- ty" and “merit" the Negro has made new contacts. T these contacts only is the N’egr. new. To some the Negro is symbolic of a joke He is a subject to be joked about and to be toked with. His popularity depended upon his willingness and abil ity to entertain or upon his faithful ser sility. Others forgot that the Negro was human It did not occur to them thst he was influenced by the same natural and artiticial impulses. That he cherished the same ambitions as the whites—education, progress, health, hap piness, fame, wealth, and all the oppor tunities of true American citizens. The only difference was in the color of his skin and when he became conscious of the handicap thus imposed upon him he became a better Negro—a better man and a better American. Even though the white man may be reluctant inadmitting it he has always appreciated the Negro. He has proven that he couldn't and can't get along w ith out him. When he first migrated to these shores he discovered that there was work to be done and he immediately sent for the black men—brought him against his will and forced him to do labor for the white men. In one form or another the black has been doing it ever since. 'Ignite F a r C a t« a n d W o u n d « Prevent infection!
