tudents urge SAAC supportby Jeff Watkins

Seven of the nine white studentswho attended the Quail Roostconference last weekend have signed aletter supporting the Society ofAfro-American Culture (SAAC) in itsefforts to obtain the first floor of thePrint Shop for office space and acultural center.

Originally, the orgainzation hadbeen allocated half of the first floor byDean of student Affairs Banks Talley.Since then, however, he has reopenedthe matter for more investigation.TALLEY WAS SENT a copy of the

letter, but was out of town last week,attending a conference in Alabama. heis withholding comment until he readsthe letter.

The letter states that the whitesstudents who signed it “have a betterunderstanding" of the racial situationon campus after attending theconference last weekend.

“It is our feeling that SAAC shouldbe given control of the entire first floorof the Print Shop for the purpose ofhaving office space and developing acultural center," the letter says. “Anopen space should be provided, similarto the present Ghetto, to be used fordances and meetings. This area is tobe under the control of SAAC but canbe reserved by other campus groupsupon approval by the SAAC executiveboard."THE LETTER ADDS that the

whites believe that SAAC has

attracted “undue criticism from thestudent body and from editorialsrefering to them as a racistorganization,” claiming that theeditorials were “inaccurate." Both theTechnician and the State Sentinelhave criticized SAAC on their editorialages. ‘The letter was signed by T. C.

Carroll, Beverly Privette, GaryParsons, Don Byrnes, RoxanneGallant, Boyd Stanley, and WayneLowder.

Stanley, president of the Inter-residence Council, termed the situa-tion a “power struggle between theadministration and SAAC for controlof 100 square feet.

“That's the area in dispute," he said.

“It would be open for all students, nota closed area."

Concerning the method for allo-cating the open space, Stanley saidthat three or four ideas werediscussed, including one that wouldpermit the Union to coordinate theactivities there.

All the students contacted agreedthat they did not completelyunderstand the situation or were notaware of it before the conference.CARROLL, student body president,

said he was “in the dark" about thematter of the Print Shop. “What tookplace at the conference made medecide," he said.

Gallant. a head residence counselorat Metcalf Residence Hall, “had noidea about the controversy (over thePrint Shop)." She added that she"became aware after the meeting, andagreed with the black students."

Privette, editor of the Technician,said, “I had the belief (before themeeting) that SAAC wanted the wholetop floor for themselves at the expense

of other student organizations. Theirperception of the Print Shop and myperception was different due to a lackof communication."BYRNES, station manager of

WKNC-FM, claimed he also did notunderstand the situation, calling it “aperfect example of a lack ofcommunication between black stu-dents and white students."

Before I signed it (the letter), Iwanted to make sure we weren’trunning any other organizations out ofspace," he added. “From what Iunderstand from John Poole (Dean ofStudent Development), other organi-zations in the King Building have beengiven space."The King Building is scheduled to be

demolished, and the organizationshoused there, including SAAC, arebeing relocated.PARSONS, attorney general for the

student body, had no opinion of thesituation before the Quail Roostsession. “I listened to them (SAAC),

(see ”Editorials," page 5)

Editorials criticized at meeting

(continued from page one) opinion on the Print Shop allocationsbefore the session, because he was ““not aware of the details involved.

“To me, the administration gaveimplications that they felt if SAAC hadthe space, ther would be no room forother organizations that needed it, butother organizations did not want it foruse all the time, just for meetings," hesaid.

Conerning criticism aimed at SAAC.Carroll said, “The blacks caught flackfrom the students. Both newspapersprinted negative things about blackstudents."CARROLL REFERRED to the

chancellor's liaison meeting on Thurs-day, Nov. 1. when members of SAACattended the meeting and metprivately to discuss problems withuniversity officials following themeeting. Carroll was not admitted tothe meeting.

"l‘he blacks caught s--t from the

and I was impressed with theirreasoning. I thought is was the bestcourse to follow."

Lowder, president of the Inter-fra—ternity Council, did not have an

Technician after the liaison meeting,"he said. “I wasn't upset about notbeing allowed in the meeting. Justbecause I‘m student body presidentdoesn't mean I have to be in on allstudents' concerns."PARSONS SAID that both papers

were discussed at the conference. “Wediscussed the Sentinel editorialregarding the Black Voice, claiming itwas the newsletter of SAAC, and theTechnician editorial generally puttingdown the conference. The oppositionto the conference created a lot offriction. That was the need for theconference. to show that we didn'tthink SAAC was a racist organiza-tion."

Stanley said, “My opinion before theconference (concerning the PrintShop) was in line with the articles inthe Technician and theState Sentinel.I was highly influenced by what I readin the papers."

Blacks of Progress ”45—”

Sentinel News BureauIn a recent letter addressed to all NCSU

black students, Dean of Student Affairs,Banks Talley, commented on the recentgrievances that the Society for Afro-AmericanCulture presented at the past Chancellor’sLiaison Committee when 50 black studentsunexpectedly showed up during the committeemeeting.“With regard to the Black Cultural Center -

at this time, I am committed to and supportthe concept of a Black Cultural Center on thiscampus,” the letter stated, adding “I havesaid this publicly on several occasions."

Talley cited the problem basically as beingthat of finding a location “that is agreeablewith the Black students, that is available foruse by 'Student Affairs. and that can beeconomically converted to student use.”

“I am sure that you appreciate thecomplexity of this problem,” Talley stated inhis letter to black students.SAAC chairman Don Bell has requested

allocation of the entire print shop once it isvacated in favor of the new print shop beingfinished adjacent to Central Stores.

Talley reiterated in his letter what he hadtold the Black students in a closed door privatemeeting with the 50 black students followingthe Chancellor’s Liaison Committee meeting.“At this time we do not know the future of

the Print Shop; I have requested that the PrintShop be made available to Student Affairs foruse by a number of student groups. I amopeful that soon we shall have some decision-. this request," the letter stated.AAC complaints over the lack, of soul

music programming on WKNC—FM were alsocovered in the dean's letter.

“It is my understanding that representa-tives of SAAC have met with Don Byrnes,station manager of WKNC, regarding thequestion of woul music programming onWKNC Don tells me that he welcomes the helpof anyone who desires to work at the station,and that he is interested in offering more soulmusic if people to be trained will come forwardwho will adequately represent the Blackneeds.”The Publications Authority in a recent

meeting discussed the SAAC grievances overthe radio station’s music programming andinstructed Byrnes to settle the problem thebest way he saw fit.

“I have urged Don Solomon from my staffto insure that all concerns on this matter areopenly discussed,” Talley stated in his letter.The letter also treated the question of

combining The Pan African Festival with AllCampus Weekend and suggested that theBlacks work this out with Student Unionofficials.Commenting on the hiring of more

professional black personnel at the University,Talley told black students in his letter, “...Iintend to hire a full-time Black counselor towork with all Black students and others assoon as an opening occurs in the CounselingCenter.”

“Please know that my commitment in thisarea is strong (Student Affairs now has fiveBlack professionals — which is demonstratedprogress) and that I am fully aware of yourfeelings on this matter as well as the othermatters I have discussed,” he added.

Talley considering

Print Shop questionby JeII Watkins

Dean of Student Affairs Banks 'l‘alley is still considering allocation ofavailable space in the Print Shop forstudent organizations which will herelocated after the demolition of theKing Religious Center.The King" Building is heini: torn

down to make way for a new addition

to the design school.Talley received the letter from

seven white students who reconimended that the Society ofAfro American Culture (SAAC) begiven use of the main floor of the l‘rintShop.

“l got the letter. I have read theletter, and I'm still thinking about it."’l‘alley said yesterday.SAAC PRESIDENT Don Bell,

talking about the letter of support,said that “any support an organizationgets is good."He said that the student leaders

who supported SAAU's request. for thespace "came to grips with therealization that students have needsthat the university does not, knowabout.""The things we've (SAAC) been

asking for the proposals we've madeI think were concrete and justit'iuhlefor themselves," liell said. “Ilut I'm notsaying I'm not appreciative.”UNDER THE INITIAL allocations,

the Print. Shop basement was to hedivided between Alpha Phi Omega,the State. Sentinel, the contact fooihullclub, and the outing club.The from half of the main floor was i

to he a black cultural center for use hyseveral black organizations.

in.lley

(continued from page 1)According to Talley. the remaining

floor space would be used for meetings» and social events on a “first come, firstserved" basis by “any studentorganization on campus."

:. TALLEY SAID HE HAS been; discussing the Print Shop with SAAC; members since last summer, when

they requested .the entire buildingfollowing completion of a new PrintShop.During the Quail Roost conference,

Talley said the black students reducedtheir request to include just the mainfloor.

“It's like any student group, black orwhite. to get the best they can for

their group. They want as much spaceas they can get. A faculty group wouldbe the same way," he said. .

Talley added that the SAACmembers offered to obtain a full timestaff member to coordinate the openspace, which was not in their originalroposal.“SINCE THEY WERE making

755.3%.

changes, I decided to think about itsome more," he said.

Talley added, however, that hewould like to see a black group and awhite group share the main floor.

“I think it would be smarter to letblack and white groups use thebuilding," he said. “This would build afoundation of good will, and therewould be an interchange of blacks andwhites coming and going.“The Student Center is not a white

student center; it's not a black andwhite student center. It’s a stateuniversity student center."TALLEY ADDED THAT there was

“no great rush" for a decision on thePrint Shop, since the new Print Shopwould have to be completed, theequipment would have to be moved,and the old building would have to berenovated.He added that if everything went

smoothly, the old Print Shop might beready for occupation by the “fall of1975."“No definite demolition date has

been set on the King Building yet,"Talley added. “Mr. (Edwin) Harris

02-8-3”

wants inter-racial use for shop

said we don't have to worry about itfor the rest of this academic year, andmaybe the fall of the next academicyear."

Talley emphasized that despite hisdecision, Chancellor John Caldwell hasthe final word on the allocations.

“The chancellor is responsible forthe administration for each (UNC)campus. John Wright (Vice Chancellorfor Finance and Business), Provost(Harry) Kelly, and I makerecommendations to the chancellor,but he is final," Talley said.

Talley said that he and Wrightjointly recommended to Caldwell thatthe Print Shop should not be torndown, but should be renovated for astudent activities building after theKing Building was demolished.“WE RECOMMENDED that the

Print Shop be fixed up and assignseveral student groups to thatbuilding. ;‘

“That's the basis of disagreement ;with SAAC," Talley said. “We must 5serve a number of student groups. I 2,2thought they wanted more space thanwas reasonable." 1

SAAC offers Black students self identity

by C. Ray Dudley IIIStaff Writer

Providing an organizationon campus where black stu-dents can identify with theirculture, the Society of AfroAmerican Culture (SAAC) isnow in its fifth year at State.

This year SAAC hopes to“create a feeling of unity a-

mong black students on cam-pus along with the hope ofproviding a broad base for in-put in the decision makingprocess of the university,”saidDon Bell, Chairman of the so-cial political organization.

IN AN ATTEMPT to makethe students on campus aware

of the black culture, SAACprovides throughout the year aseries of films on race relations.There is also a functional blackculture center to enlightenpeople on the black cultureincluding artifacts from Afri-can nations, books and maga-zines which are not a part ofthe normal university subscrip-

tions, and lectures, speakersand other activities relating tothe black culture.

SAAC, in conjunction withthe Black Student Board, helpsco-sponsor the Black Aware-ness Conference in the fall andthe Pan African Festival in thespring.

“The membership of SAAC

have the tutorial program.

believes the university mustcommit itself to the creation ofreal opportunity for blackpeople as a part of its normalinstitutional goals,” stated Bell.

“THE BLACK STUDENTSmust have adequate financialand academic support if theyare to benefit realistically fromundergraduate education; be-cause we believe this pointalso; that black students gradu-ating from all advanced institu-tions must be at least propor-tional to the numbers in thepopulation as a whole,” hecontinued.

Another goal of the organi-zation is to increase the blackenrollmentx“ln our attempt tomaintain the present enroll-ment we have initiated a tuto-rial program, run by black stu-dents, with particular emphasison freshmen that they do wellin basic freshmen courses,”continued Bell. A few depart-ments, chemistry and math,

SAAC is not a segregatedorganization. “Rarely willthere be white studentsattending meetings, rap ses-sions and other activities opento the entire university. Weencourage participation ofWhite students at activitiesheld in the ghetto and thestudent center,” concludedBell.BERNARD HAYES, a

member of SAAC, feels thatSAAC is fulfilling its goals.“We are enlightening the stu-dents and the community ofthe black culture on campus.”

Another member, HarryParker, 3 SOphomore in me-chanical engineering, believesthat the organization is unify-ing the blacks on campus.“When I first came to theuniversity I guess I felt likemost students, lost. But when Ijoined SAAC it showed methat blacks, even though a mi-nority on campus, are workingtogether and are unified.”

To the Editor:We the undersigned white students who

attended the conference at Quail RoostConference Center February 2nd and 3rd, 1974,believe that we now have a betterunderstanding of the problems of black studentson State's campus.

It is our feeling that SAAC should be givencontrol of the entire first floor of the Print Shopfor the purpose of having office space anddeveloping a cultural center. An open spaceshould be provided, similar to the presentGhetto, to be used for dances and meeting. Thisarea is to be under the control of SAAC but canbe reserved by other campus groups uponapproval by the SAAC executive board.We feel that SAAC has received undue

criticism from the student body and fromeditorials referring to them as a racistorganization. We feel that the editorials wereinaccurate.Thus, we would like to state that we will

support. in any way that we can, the efforts ofSAAC to make North Carolina State a bettercampus for all students.

SAAC demands

To the Editor:Apparently the participants of the conference

at Quail Roost were made privy to someinformation relating to the SAAC’s “pressing"need for the entire first floor of the Print Shop.If so, they certainly failed to pass suchinformation along to the student body. Theletter from T.C. Carroll and six others, printedin the Technician of 11 February made noattempt to present a rational analysis or amotivation for such demands.

Instead, the letter urged — no doubt from theposition of student “leadership" — simply thatthe demands of the SAAC be acceded to. Such astatement of policy, without appropriatejustification on the part of those1n positions ofresponsibility is in wanton disregard for thetrust placed1n these students by the electorateof this university.

If. and only if. the rationale for SAACdemands (or the demands of any special interestgroup) can be presented to and accepted by thestudent body as a whole should those demandsbe met. David V. Brooks

Racism Alive

and Well

The semi-official newsletter for SAACis the source for the following selectedexcerpts. Quotes are from the Nov. 15th,1973 issue.“No I don’t love white people! But, I

am not going to allow hate to rule my life.I’m learning, just as Brother Malcolm Xdid, that some white minds are opening.And even though hell will cease to be inmy mind before I ever embrace theblue-eyes, I will never be afraid tostand-up and be a man and say—the hellwith loving each other, let’s get on withcorrecting faulty government, shadybusiness practices, and racist universitypolicies; and let’s put people and studentsat the heart of everything we do.”“Why is there the current hassel about

getting a little “soul" music on our yes wepay for it radio station WKNC‘?”

“Everyone has their own definition of atrue Ebony woman; a proud, BlackQueen. Aldra Green is SAAC’s definitionof that Queen of Darkness, displaying thetrue beauty of Blackness. . . .In her searchfor her Ebony King, Al looks for someonewho is sensitive, virile, articulate,creative, aggressive, adventurous, versa-tile, very affectionate and above allsomeone who is totally Black with astrong Black mind . . . She is the essenceof sheer Black poetry. Walking tall, proudand Black and saying take me as I am,Aldra Green."“A black woman should be treated as a

gift from Heaven."“If you dig being around Brothers and

Sisters, then do it; but on the other hand,if you are hung on the Alabaster people,then that’s your life! We will write aboutsome of you half-asses and Black Honkiesin another issue..."“For all those Black Sisters, who

incidentally are dynamite, . . ."“...Uncle Toms who control the Negro

community on behalf of the white powerstructure. The classic illustrations of thequash-the-black-militant policy are thecareers of Marcus Garvey, W.E.B.DuBois and Paul Robeson.”“By crushing black leaders, while

inflating the images of Uncle Toms andcelebrities from the world of sport andplay, the mass media were able to channeland control the aspirations and goals ofthe black masses."

“One more time boom! One more time,boom!”The preceding quotes were selected

solely on the basis of their racist content.

Comment

Racism is a disease that is endemic inour society. The symptoms of thishereditary disease are such organizations8 the Ku Klux Klan, Rights of WhitePeople, the Black Panthers and smallerorganizations like SAAC.Any organization which exists of, by,

and for the interests of one race is racist.Racism is the catalyst for the formation ofthese groups; they in turn produce moreracism.The words used as a standard of

judging a person, “blue-eyes,” “Black,"“Honkie,” “Brothers and Sisters,"“Alabaster people,” “Uncle Toms,”perpetuate rather than alleviate the cancerof our society, racism. Every one of thesewords is iust as insulting as the word“Nigger” because they imply that a manshould be judged on his skin color ratherthan the person he is.

The Reverend Martin Luther King was 1one of the greatest men to live in thiscentury. He, more than anyone else,caused to be eliminated the most gallingsymptoms of racism in our society. Hepreached peace, understanding, brother-hood and integration; his success andrespect were earned through spurningracism and all its manifestations.

There is no moral difference betweenSAAC’S demand for a separaterecreational facility for black students andearlier legal requirements that Negroeshave separate toilets and drinkingfountains. Racist Caucasians would perferthat Negroes isolate themselves, anyway.

Although some white students oncampus undoubtedly belong to either theKKK or ROWP, thank God they don’thave an NCSU chapter! But we do haveSAAC.Undoubtedly SAAC will continue to

exist. To be of true service, SAAC shouldconcentrate on healing the racial schism inour society, not exacerbate it withinflammatory racist values.

Editor's Thoughts....

Recently, this editor had the appurtunity to attend the

ground-breaking ceremonies of Soul City. I saw this as an eco-

nomic, political and social endeavor.

Economically, this is to be an ed endeavor initiated soley

by Black people. Mr. Hchissick stated that any woman could

go to the limits of any field she chose to work in. One prob-

lem that the editor noted, was that there were few unattached

men there. I must remember to remind hr. uCniSSiCk that there

are other womanly goals.

Politically, there were many contacts to be made with ”lack

folks in hi;h yositions of government, economics and social

agencies. People such as a :residential aid(etanley Scott),

Governor's aid(Larnie G. horton), nayors ( Li htner of daleigh

and Ford of Tuskegee) and local ofiicials. These people are

always open to sugnestions from us and have valuable inform-

ation as far as contacts out in the cruel world are concerned.

Socially, this whole endeavor will have a profound effect

on Jlack folks now and in the future. Jew jobs will be created

and since it is a new organization ther is much room for ad-

vancement.

anyone concerned with getting involved and getting ahead

should look into the many possibilities made available by boul

City.****i*‘I******************************ki’it’kfl-‘X‘fl'i'fli‘fl'i'ki'i'fl’fl'fl' .. ***%*****

The Chancellor's laison meeting, which took place almosttwo weeks ago, was the setting where the Black students made areasoned, deliberate and tempered appeal to be heard! Thespokesman of the group, Brother Don Bell- who is also the Chairmanof SAAC, is to be congratulated for his patience and calm duringthe discussions that took place at the meeting. You, the Blackstudents of NCSU are to be complimented not only for your continuedsupport of Brother Don, but also for the level-headed manner inwhich you have withstood the bombast that evolved from the nghnishitand State Southnel.

Beware! The sincerity and creditability of Black Studentleaders are being challenged by the unbelievers of the Universitycommunity. It appears that a concentrated effort is being employedto divide the 200 (?) black students into divergent factions andto encourage infighting between ideologies. One of the moreapparent strategies being reinstated by some members of the Univer-sity community is the use of a self-serving campaign to undercutand undermine black student leaders and to isolate them from theother black students. This is an old strategy. long used by theoppressor to "take care of those uppity Niggers."

Brother Eldridge Cleaver in Soul On Ice addressed this andother problems surrounding the survival of the true black leader.He said that "one tactic by which the rules of America have keptthe bemused millions of Negroes in optimum subjugation has beena conscious, systematic emasculation of Negro leadership. Throughan elaborate system of sanctions, rewards, penalities, andpersecutions-with, more often than not members of the blackbourgeoisie acting as hatchet-men------any Negro who sought leader-ship over the black masses and refused to become a tool of thewhite power structure was either cast into prison, killed, houndedout of the country, or blasted into obscurity and isolation inhis own land and among his own people. His isolation was assuredby publicity boycotts alternated with character assassination inmass media, and by fratricidal power plays of Uncle Toms whocontrol the Negro community on behalf of the white power structure.The classic illustrations of the quash-the-black—militant policyare the careers of Marcus Garvey, w.E.B. DuBois and Paul Robeson.

"By crushing black leaders, while inflating the images ofUncle Toms and celebrities from the apolitical world of sportand play, the mass media were able to channel and control theaspirations and goals of the black masses. The effect was to takethe 'problem' out of a political and economic and philosophicalcontext and place it on the misty level of goodwill, 'charitableand harmonious race relations; and 'good sportsmanlike conduct'.This technique of 'Negro control' has been so effective that thebest known Negroes in America have always been-and still are-the entertainers and athletes (this is true also of white America).

Some of the worst blunders in history were caused by short—term planning when long-term planning was warranted. Long—termplanning is warranted in conjunction with our bid for the PrintShop.

We must realize that it will not be worth a thing to raisehavoc after the Print Shop decision has been made.Fortunately,our SAAC leaders are trying to nip the situation in the bud. Un-fortunately, their efforts have met with undue hassle on the partof the Administration and apathy on the part of the majority ofthe Black student body.

Yes, the chairman and co—chairman of SAAC were elected tobe our mouthpieces but like any mouthpiece they need to have somevoice to project.Don and Ralph need the voices of the Black stu-dents.

We have been slapped with the suggestion of having the base—ment of the Print Shop. We asked for the entire building. Our mainreason for wanting the entire building was for unity. We wouldhave sufficient space to house all our black organizations in+eluding those in existence now and those yet to come. We have:found the basement to be totally unsuitable for our needs. .

The under classmen should really rally behind this cause,%NOW! You will have to suffer next year when the black students?have no place to call their own. We must continue pushing now \\for a decision so that if it is in contradiction to our wishes,‘we can deal with it before May. ,

More Thoughts by Bernard M. Hayes

Recently, I had the opportunity to visit the backward cam-pus of Memphis State University. I met "black Students" whoseideology consisted mainly of individualism . Before I made thistrip, T viewed the NCSU filack students as backward but I mustchange my mind.

Memphis State has a total enrollment of 21,000 plus andof these, 2,000 plus are slack. Their annual budget comes to$6,000 for the Slack students. This is no farce! The immediatequestion that came to my mind was "What happened?" To tell youthe truth, The slacks at memphis State are very untogether andit makes this campus look like paradise.

'"'I think tat a fundamental difference between our campus M“and their campus is one of application. It's hard for a SlackStudent Association to get together when outsiders can pointout errors in their organization. All of the schools and Uni-versities represented had various suggestions for uemphis State.

The next important question is how this situation appliesto SAAC. The answer is that we were in that situation once andwe are fastly approaching it again. We have to realize that weare in this thing as a group. Any member of a group that is in-effective, affects the entire group. The individual is theprimary concern and by strengthening the individual, the groupwill prosper.

this to get you to understand the importance of any decision

on All-Campus. If you don't communicate your ideas to srenda

harrison, President at the Student Center, we may not have a

Pan-Africanism Eestival at all this year. It is my opinion that

all blacks on this campus have something to say and it is im-

perative that we vocalize our ideas in order to remain function-

In spite of promises made by the school bureaucracy and the educational‘innovations‘ by administration and staff, our children continue to be victimizedby an unproductive system of education. do one wants to take the blame, and ”buckpassing‘ is the name of the game, but in reality who really does care?

The process of educational deterioration, though decadent in nature, resemblesa carefully structured and executed plan. It starts, for the masses of Blackchildren, in their primary years ~ often called their “formative? years, and rightlyso. Because, it is in those years of elementary education that children, supposedly,learn the basic tools with which they will carve their academic futures. Withougthese fundamental tools, academically, there is no future. For most Black children,acaienically, there is little or no future. Their foundation was never laidneither in practice nor in theory.

The plan, if one does exist, says that an educational system is designed toproduce a Specific product at the end of its course. And, if that product isessential to the society that society will provide all the resources and materialsnecessary to achieve its successful delivery, realizing that it is dependent uponthat product for its future progress and development. The total spectrum ofeducation for white children produces such a product. Their educational systemconstantly reinforces a set of values that say that they are the leaders ofyesterday and today, and it prepares them for their delegated roles as leaders oftomorrow.

The years of bureaucratic rhetoric, protests of educators, indignations ofparents,e etc. have resolved little, Our children continue to suffer. And, as apeople we are still powerless.

Although, the system of education is only one element of our demise it playsan important role in the progress and development of our people.

A system should guarantee a comprehensive academic education, but only under ‘.the framework of developing, mdstrengt‘nening us as a nation of people. Valueswhich emphasize our abilities to achieve, our desire to accomplish, and our needto be productive will render us a strong people, and must be reinforced withinthe educational structure.

It is our obligation and duty to create an alternative to a process which wealready know continues to destroy our young and thwart our future. Only ourefforts will prove that we really do care.

(AFRICAN AFFAIRS (JET)

SOUTH AFRICA-

In a surprising hove; the South African government made a concession ofBlack studentd demands by appointing a Black man as director of the Universityof the Western Cape. he is Dr. Richard Ernest Van der Ross.

Observers viewed the appointment as a major change of policy since thegovernment once said it would never allow a Black man to give orders to whites, aswill be the case since the university has white faculty members.

Of even ;reater surprise is the fact that a judicial commission is conductingan inquiry into demonstrations which closed the school temporarily.

ZAIREGf

Zaire President Hobutu Sese Seko and Nixon conferred at the Whitehouseduring recent meetings at which the two leaders discussed African —US relationsand ways in which cooperation between the US and Zaire governments can be increas-ed. deny in concern for African Unity look upon these type of meetings as acementing measure for Sec-colonialism.

GUINEA ~ BISSAU~

In the continuing struggle for liberation from Portuguese colonialist, theGuinea-Bissau war has rightfully made Portueal the villain and the Africanliberators the heroes in the eyes of the international audience. And for thisthey are about to call for the villain‘s evacuation.

since 1959, the Guinea-Bissau organization has fought a bloody battle withthe Portuguese for control of their West African nation. The liberators haverecently proclaimed independence from Portugal. This, the revolutionaries say,transforms fortugal from a colonizing oppressor to an outside invader.

Some Questions and an Answer

NUmerous articles have appeared in the Technician and State Sentienel.Wherein the Administration (or is it only Dean Tally talking) has attemptedth explain the grains and strides made in the battle to acheive equalemployment and educational opportunities at NCSU. I have grave doubts aboutthe sincerity of the administration and how it is disposed toward non-whites.One of these doubts concerns the student-body make—up. No one can honestlyexplain to me why only 200 (250?) Black Americans are enrolled in NCSU astudent body of 14,000, whereas there are almost 1,000 foreign studentsenrolledhere. WHY?!!! ISa the administration trying to tell us that they found only200 Black Americans attracted to State university while some 1000 foreignstudents found NCSU so attractive that they'were willing to travel tens ofthousands of miles to leave home and country to attend dear old NCSU? Why isthere the current hassel about getting a little "soul" music on Our yeswe pay for it radio station WKNC? Isn't there at least one Black—Professorwilling to come to NCSU to teach Engineering? Chemistry? Physics? Why isn'tthere at least one Black teaching professor in the Department of MbdernLanguage, or Philosophy and Religion, or Economics, etc. ( If I'm wrong andthere is a Black Engineering professor teaching at this school, I want tomeet you right away, Sir or Madam!)

What is the administration, the student government, the university centerboard of directors doing to foster an enviornment conducive to the opening ofthe narrow minds of both whites and non-whites? Shouldn't all of us (student,faculty and staff) be concerned.enough.to want to learn all we can aboutthe fears and misgivings that we all bring to NCSU? Is there really a newgeneration of young Americans (white, black, chicane, yellow, and red)willing to talk to each other and seek out the middle path? Does the newgeneration realize that the old-thinking bastards of the depression, the beer-belly, wine freaks, the kill-crazy Vietnam designers, the red-neck rebels andthe old narroweminded Americans are unwilling to say what w§_must----fuck thedollars and profits, its people that really count!

No I don't love white people! But, I am not going to allow hate torule my life. I'm learning, just as Brother Malcom X did, that some whiteminds are opening. And even though hell will cease to be in my mind beforeI ever embrace the blue-eyes, I will never be afraid to stand-up and be aman and say--the hell with loving each other, lets get on with correctingfaulty government, shaddy business practices, and racist university policies;and lets put people and students at the heart of everything we do.

Think about this!--The only hope of acheiving the ideas and hopes express-ed in our Constitution and Declaration of Independence lie in what happens tothe self determination and destiny of Black America!

Look we must learn to appreciate the uniqueness and differences in skintones, religious beliefs, and philosophies about life, liberty, etc.. Andwe must be able to allow the differences to exist on par with our own. Wemust not opress those who feel concerned enough to upset the mediocre and thestatus quo.

Ribs an' Thangs!

I am trying desperately to be honest with myself and with you when Isay that a whole bunch of shit is starting to pile up around here. Theorientation of this colum will be primarily, the ordering of the little pilesinto meaning. Oh no, I'm not going to even try to read the resulting shit pilesbut it sure is a lot easier to haul it away if you know where it is and who islikely to drop another pile of shit or not. This colum belongs to you, and if youeat up all the little piles that are going to drop, and if you like it so wellthat you will not even respond to it by letting me know ehat you think-~That'so.k. too. But if you think this is so much bullshit-—--have the ts to tell meabout it and I'll print it, o.k! Point 1, lesson l--don't let t e Shltdropped on you by this university get into your mouth and brains! Alwayskeep your head, be calm and rational, and do your own thinking. Don’t be pushedinto doing anything that doesn't feel good to you. If you dig being aroundBrothers and Sisters, then do it; but on the other hand, if you are hung onthe Alabaster people, then thats' your life! we will write about some of youhalf-asses and Black Honkies in another issue, provided the editor keeps mearound after todays colum.

Today I would like to share with you one of the letters that I readwhile I was still ducking bullets a few years ago!

Does this letter verbalize your "feeling”?

Letter courtesy Soledad Brother: -The Prison Letters of George Jackson

July 28, 1967

Dear Georgia,

Fbr me, the word "soul" has yet to be properly defined. I have seenor felt no evidence of its existence. I have heard the word and listenedto the theory connected with it, but it is abstract and academic at best.

The theory of an existing and benevolent god simply doesn't make senseto anyone who is rational. A benevolent and omnipotent god would neverallow such imbalances as I see to exist fer one second. If by chance I amwrong, however, I must then assume that being born black called for someautomatic punishment for sins I know nothing about, and being innocent itbehooves me to defy god.

I seriously fail to understand when someone speaks of my soul, but Ido know what my body needs. I know what my incessantly craves. Gratificationof these is what I must pursue. As a woman I can understand your beingnaturally disposed to servitude. I can . understand your feelings but what Ican't understand is why you would have me feel the same, considering that Iam a man. Why have you always attempted to implant womanly ideas into mycharacter? Of course it is your option to do as you please, but please don'tfeel that I love you less simply because I fail to respond, or feel that I loveyou any less because I do not have time to explain myself.

Love has never turned aside the boot, blade, or bullet. Neither has itever satisfied my hunger of body or mind. The auther of my hunger, thearchitect of the circumstantial pressures which are the sole cause of my illswill find no peace, in this existence or the next, or the one following that;never, never. I'll dog his trail to infinity.

I hope I never feel love for the thing that causes insufferable pain. WhatI do feel is the urge to resist, resist, and never stop resisting or even thinkof stopping my resistence until victory falls to me.

Extreme, perhaps, but involved in my self—determination and control ofthe enviornment upon which my existence depends, and the existence of myfather, mother, Delora's and Penny's sons, and all that I feel tied to. we arein an extreme situation.

I didn't create this impasse. I had nothing to do with the arrival of mattersat this destructive end, as you infer. Did I colonize, kidnap, make war onmyself, destroy my own institutions, enslave myself, use myself and neglect my-self, steal my identity and then being reduced to nothing, invent a competitiveeconomy knowing that I cannot compete? Sounds very foolish, but this is whatyou propose when you place the blame on me or on "us". It was a foOl who creat-ed a monster, one unaccustomed to power and its use, a fbolish man grown headywith power and made drunk, dizzy drunk from the hot airthat inflates his ego.I am his victim, born innocent, a total product of my surroundings. Everythingthat I am, I developed into because of circumstantial and situational pressures.I was born knowing nothing; necessity and enviornment fermed me, and everyone

like me. Please accord me at least the social morality that springs fromits contorted brain center. I'm through with weakness and cowardice. I'vetrained it out. Let come what comes. I can never delude myself into think-—ing that I love my enemies. I can hardly do any worse than I am doing now;if worst come to worst that's all right, I'll Just continue the fight in hell.

A resolution adopted and signedby several student leaders urgingAdministration approval of appro-priating the entire upper floor ofthe Print Shop to SAAC (Society ofAfro-American Culture) controlappears not to have been met withmuch visible enthusiasm by eitherDean of Student Affairs BanksTalley, or Chancellor Caldwell —and for good reason.The resolution proposes that

SAAC should be given control ofthe entire first floor and that anactivities space on the same floorbe available for reservation byother campus organizations. How-ever, these ingenious signatoriesto the resolution have recommend-ed that SAAC’s “executive board”be given the authority forapproving other groups’ use of thismeeting space. '

The original conce t of theDivision of Student Af airs is thatblack student organizations wouldhave the greatest portion of theupper floor and that an activitiesspace under the control andadministration of the Departmentof Student Development, be madeavailable for groups desiring such ameeting area and who could reservethis space upon request.

If SAAC were to control thisactivities space, what wouldprevent them from reserving this

area on a continuing day-to-dabasis? Technically, they woulhave the authority to do this if thewished.How would SAAC adjudicate a

situation wherein three studentgroups were requesting themeeting space at identical timeperiods? What if SAAC were one ofthe three groups? What. criteriawould SAAC use in determiningwhich of several groups requestingthe space at the same time,received the space? Would studentorganizations who were deniedreservation of the space acceptSAAC as the proper recipient andadministrator of this vestedauthority? Why should SAAC haveauthority over other studentorganizations?The University need not give

much deliberation to a resolutionthat bears signatures, but containslittle forethought and responsibili-ty.The Department of Student

Development should be delegatedthe responsibility and authority forconducting any such activit thatentails decision-making af ectingpersons and organizations; whereconflict could arise; and whereimpartiality and fairness must beassured and extended to all parties

. concerned.SAAC’s “executive board” is not

the vehicle for attaining this in anyacceptable! fashion.

Victory

The decision by Dean of Student AffairsBanks Talley to give the Society ofAfro-American Culture (SAAC) access tothe first floor of the Print Shop brings along and controversial issue to rest at last.The controversy over the building hasbeen tossed back and forth between theparties involved long enough. With thatissue out of the way, both the blackstudents and the administration can nowturn their attention to other matters ofimportance.For SAAC, the allocation of the first

floor has to be termed a hard foughtvictory. The issue, which began lastsummer, most likely reached a turningpoint at the Quail Roost conferenceattended by administration representa-tives and student body leaders last month.The support of several white studentleaders following the conference certainlydid nothing to hinder the black students’stand, and may have helped turn the tidein their favor. The effect of the whitestudents’ support may never be known,but it certainly cannot be counted on.However, this does not mean that blackstudents could not have gotten thecontested area without white students'support. A re-examination of the case mayhave shown that SAAC's proposalsdeserved more consideration, and thefloor was finally allocated to theorganization on the strengths of itsproposals.

This issue was one of four proposalsstudent body president T. C. Carroll

wanted approved by the administration.Whether or not this is an indication thatthe other proposals will be passed, we donot know. Further study by the partiesinvolved will have to be conducted beforeany concrete changes can be considered.But Carroll can take heart in therealization that one of his four proposalswas approved. Much has been said abouthis administration, little of it compliment-ary. This latest decision must beconsidered a rallying point in his term,which is almost over.However, if any lesson comes from this,

it has to be that if the students believe insomething strong enough, positive effortsmade toward that end can bring aboutsatisfactory results. This may not alwaysbe the case, however. For instance,Carroll’s other three proposals may neverget off the ground, but it does show thatthe administration is willing to listen andeven give in if the students’ argument isvalid. Such was the case for the PrintShop. It is enough to give studentorganizations a reason for working towarda common goal, to know that their voicescan be heard. It can open up an academiccommunity and allow for moregive-and-take when exchanging ideas.The Print Shop may have little effect

now on the entire student body, but theadministration’s action could conceivablypave the way for additional interchangebetween students and administrators.That means a very promising future forState.
