What About Us? African American Children
Additional Details:
|
Twelve million American Negroes are asking the same question these lads ask. The story of democracy has come to their ears. They want adequate education, a fair chance in the labor market, homes that may be free from disturbance, an opportunity to raise their children for the best that life can give. The story of democracy which they have heard is full of such promise; the democracy which they know lacks its very beginnings. More and better schools with trained teachers, churches in which to worship God, preachers equipped for tasks of leadership, the opportunity to enter broader fields of service - the application of Christian democracy to them is the cry that is raised. Gifts of $25 to $800 will help make this possible. For the complete story write to the Board of Homes - Missions and Church Extension of the Methodist Episcopal Church, 1701 Arch Street, Philadelphia, Pa.
