195317811scsNew York: New Century Publishers 1953. Octavo paperbound stapled printed pink wrappers 48 pp. Near-Fine with lightly rubbed edges. From first page: .The two-sided process of development applies also to the Negro people’s movement. There is an intensification of ruling class terror and briberty directed towards the Negro people and increased demagogy by Negro reformism side by side with bold militant and courageous struggles of the Negro masses. We cannot and must not minimize the ever mounting violence of pro=fascist reaction. The new developments on the domestic and international scene however offer great promise for advancement of the Negro freedom movement. The possibility of transforming the positive promise of this movement into lasting victories for the Negro people can be realized by achieving the militant unity and leadership of the working class allied with the poor farmers and Negro masses to checkmate and irrevocably defeat the adventuristic foreign and domestic policy of U. S. imperialism. Let us therefore turn to these new features in the Negro liberation movement with particular attentio to the fight for peace among the Negro masses.
