Preface

THE production of books about or by the Negro has increased to suchan extent that it has been deemed feasible to limit th, ',7inth %In

of the Negro booklist to the Negro in the United States. Although much ofpast history is still included, the list as a whole is heavily weighted on theside of current situations, problems, and solutions. So that the list might beas up-to-date as possible, titles which were published during the earlymonths of 1965, and which were available to the selection committee forexamination, have been included. A supplement is planned for coverage ofsubsequent publications.

Earlier editions of The Negro; a List of Significant Books included bookson Africa. To fill the gap created by the omission of this area in the NinthEdition, a reN Ision of the Africa issue of Branch Library Book News (Febru-ary, 1961 ) is planned for the near future.

The titles included in The Negro in the United States are available in thecirculating collections of many of the branches of The New York PublicLibrary located throughout Manhattan, The Bronx, and Staten Island. Spe-cial attention is called to the circulating collection of the Countee CullenRegional Branch and, for reference use, the Schomburg Collection of NegroLiterature and History, and the Reference Department in the Central Build-ing. Titles marked with an asterisk (*) are listed in current or earlier eak-lions of Books for the Teen Age, an annual list prepared by the Committeeon Books for Young Adults of The New York Public Library.

THEY HAVE SPOKEN

,Pgr

Rarely in any time does an issue lay bare the secret heart of Americaitself. Rarely are we met with a challenge, not to our growth orabundance, or our welfare or our security, but rather to the valuesand the purposes and the meaning of our beloved nation.

The issue of equal rights for American Negroes is such an issue.And should we defeat every enemy, and should we double ourwealth and conquer the stars, and still be unequal to this issue,then we will. have failed as a people and as a nation.

For, with a country as with a person, "What is a man profited if he

shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?"

PRESIDENT LYNDON B. JOHNSON

To Joint Session of CongressMarch 15, 1965

I ask you to look into your hearts . . . for the one plain, proud, andpriceless quality that unites us all as Americans; a sense of justice.. . . justice requires us to insure the blessings of liberty for allAmericans and their posterity not merely for reasons of eco-nomic efficiency, world diplomacy, and domestic tranquillitybut above all, because it is right.
