Thoughts on the City

"Our cities are crime-haunted dying grounds. Huge sectors of our youth...face permanent unemployment... Neither the courts nor the prisons contribute anything resembling justice or reformation. The schools are unable-or unwilling-to educate our children for the real world of our struggles."


- From the Preamble, National Black Political Agenda, Gary, Indiana, 1972
