But The Deep Desire For Peace Remained

I Am Being Tried For Fighting For The Right Of My People, Who Are Still Second-class Citizens In This United States Of America.

As Americans, Preserving The Best Of Our Traditions, We Have The Right- Nay The Duty-to Fight For Participation In The Forward March Of Humanity

Yes, Peace Can And Must Be Won, To Save The World From The Terrible Destruction Of World War Iii.

In The Early Days Of My Carer As An Actor, I Shared What Was Then The Prevailing Attitude Of Negro Performers :;that The Content And Form Of A Play Or A Film Scenario Was Of Little Importance To Us. What Mattered Was Was The Opportunity, Which Came So Seldom To Our Folks ... Later I Came To Understand That The Negro Artist Could Not View The Matter Simply In Terms Of Of His Individual Interests, And That He Had A Responsibility To His People Who Rightfully Resented The Traditional Stereotyped Portrayals Of Negros On Stage And Screen.
