RE: COUNTERORIENTATION WED
And from that, when we got their views over to the students and
they saw the centralization of the situation at Duke University
this is when they became involved. They’re still involved. And
they have meant much to us.
It matters not what your views are, whether you are
hippie, yippie, or black power, it doesn't matter to me, but if
you're on my side I'm with you. I'm like the old story was about
the black man who was having such a hard time once with his
(unintelligible) and he prayed to die so he could
(unintelligible). And you krow people about 20 or 30 years ago,
he was scared to be praying too much because he didn't know much
about that, I mean about going to hell. So he told this black
man, no.use in your going ptaying to go to heaven because there
aren't any niggers in heaven. God is not going to have you up
there,
And this disturbed him more and he sure enough prayed.
And he took his life, finally died and went to heaven. And it is
true, when he got there, there wasn't a black man there. So
Saint Peter gave him his wings and he flew around and the other
white men looked at him. He said you better take it easy buddy,
you'll get Saint Peter to take your wings away from you. He
never said a thing, just kept flying, so glad to be there. So when
he called for recess and he kept flying. Saint Peter took his
wings. (rest unintelligible.)
And that's my point here is, it doesn't matter to me
what your wings are, whether you're racist, liberal, militant,
or what, if you're on my side, wade the devil with me, if you
aré going to stand up for five minutes, go get it done. The
changes in labor.
Now, this is better, it's better to first, and people
like the minority people whether black or white, is to have you
own idea and knowledge of what you need. This I guess is one of
the main reasons that we have got the forces that we have got at
Duke University. And so the question comes up and you feel that
way and investigate what you are in, it makes it hard for the
person who is concerned about the job to be as much benefit to us
as they could, as they could be. I advise you to find and search
