i i . AND FASCST “We want decent housing, fit for the shelter of human beings.”’ In any city, country or nation, this is one of the most important neces sities that one needs to live. But 4 or 43 if the Slumlords and Fad Pigs of Winston-Salem ov't know this or that they just don’t care about anyone else, On Marck 4, 1970, Miss Polly Graham came Into the Head~ quarters of the Wiuston-Salem Of- fice of the National Committee to Combat Fuscism and stated that she had been evicted from her horne after the door nad been kicked duwn by fescist pigs and a silly avaricious Slumlord, Miss Graham the N,C.C F, for any type uedp or assistance we could give her, After arriving ta the community we found out net only had Miss Graham been evicted but the fools (PIGS) had promised to come back and evict other fami- Hes of the community. The houses in the Locust Street area are not fit for the Shelter of Human Be-~ ings: some of the homes do not have bathtubs, some don’t have hot water, windows are brokenand some have holes in the walls big enough for pigs to crawl through, The Slumlords have not made any effort to correct any of these de- fciencles, Lf anyone sflouldbe pay- ing anything , the people who live in these rat infested houses should be paid for living under such conditions, The people of this com- muntty got tozether with a Brother and Sister of the Winston-Salem National Committee to Combat Fascism and decided that Miss PEOPLE OF THE CONR PIGS CF V. Graham nor anyone else was going to be evicted. Miss Graham's be- longings were moved back into the house. The Brother and Sister and people of thecommunity armed and Prepared themselves to deal with the pigs and landlords when they returned. When word reached the low- fe Jigs that we were ready to deal with them in the language they spoke, (through the barrel of & gun) they w3uldn’t show their faces in the conimunity, The run- ning dogs hid, Afterwards, it was reported that an anonymous donor had paid the rent, and another report said some type of govern- ment agency hed paid the rent. But regardless of how the rent was paid; we people had taken their stand and they vowed to re~ sist any more evictions and the UNiTY VS THE SLUMILCR3S ial re-eviction of Miss Graham, Most’ of the people also objected to the paying of the rent because they felt like the house was not worth the money that was paid, Since this Incident, the city of- ficials or ‘City Slickers’’ have gotten upset over the eviction, as if this was the first time it has happened, Of course everyone knows this {s not the first time this type of oppression has taken Place. Just last week an elderly lady, Mrs. Minnie Bellamy and her grandchildren were evicted in "ice cold’ weather, and nothing was done about it. Those fouls down- town couldn’t help know about it because tt was publicized for two days all over the city. The real Feason why these fools are upset ig ; Hi t is because the people of this com. munity have taken a stand against this madness. and refuse to Ist it happen again, So to you ‘‘deep- ly concerned” city officials, Mayor “*Mad"’ Benton, Chief of Pigs *Un- justice’ Tucker, your upset days ; have just begun, because we poor oppressed people of Winston Salem are going to be dealing with you from here on out, We have the constitutional right to bear arms, and if that’s what It takes.’ to deal with you, so let it be.
