OPENING: 1979 CONVOCATION Author and journalist, Carl T. Rowan, was the keynote speaker for the 112th Opening Convocation Services held in Cramton Auditorium on September 21, 1979. The following are excerpts from his address: Propaganda Babes In the Woods. This is a time of both gloom and hope for Black America. Gloom because unyielding racial discrimination keeps Black America in economic distress. And the American political process, along with the mood created by the media, have fostered terms like reverse discrimination, and legal actions exemplified by Bakke and Weber, with the result that the position of the Black family, relative to the white one, has worsened. In fact, the Black family is being destroyed. We need more discipline in Black America. We need more determination in Black Amercia. And, we need more trained intelligence in Black America. With our dedication to these truths, we shall forever be burdened by the problems of grade school violence, high school drugs and dropouts, adults who cannot read and write well MPugh to answer a want ad or get a driver's license. Wj shall A times unlimited see our communities in econonK rfe Mi our children face to face vith human degredat our families rent asunder by self-hatred and hopelessne Sj By God, we shall do better than that. | 26
