Dr. Joseph Jackson contends that black people should be proud of our country and should willfully and bjoyfully participate in the bi- centennial events. Dr. Jackson seems to further suggest that the bi- centennial should be the event which culminates our long history ofdark struggle and which illuminates us into the $hining light of the American way . . 3' Vt. . . Mr. Lcrone Bennett, who held with an adamant not that blacks should not take part in any type of bicentennial celebration. Mr. Bennett defends his position by saying that blacks were brought to America as captive slaves, we were not free then and wetre not free now. The constitutionally quaranteed freedoms of blacks have never been fully developed, so why should black people take part in any type of celebration that commemorates freedom . . P W . . Mr. Vernon Jordon feels that blacks should participate in the celebration ofthc bicentennial. but that this participation should be of a special and particular charac- ter. He feels that we. as black people should devise our own means for celebrating the bicentennial .. 55 There does exist a means by wlneh we may etchtlout' own particular form of BICENTENNIAL participation. As participants in the bicentennial. black people must play the role of storytellers. In saying this. it doesm mean that we should become sages of fairy tales and yarns. but the sages of true stories of his- tory. Black people have contributed much to the building ofAmerica. and not just in the agricultural sector alone. We should form community action groups so that black children hear more than the tales of Paul Revere, Benjamin Franklin and George Washington. They ought to hear of the heroics and accomplishments of Crispus Attucks, Benjamin Banneker, and George Washington Carver. It is advised those black participants not to wallow in the past. but to tell the storyr of our present also. Remember the Horatio Alger rags-to-riehex story. but tell it about a once poor Alabama boy named AG. Gastont who became a multi-millionaire. Remember the Bing Crosby golden throat story. but tell it about a sister named Leontyne Price. Remember the ministerial mastery of the Reverend Doctor Norman Vincent Peale, but tell it about a Morehouse College graduate named Martin Luther King. 56 5? 58 1n telling the: story ufnur present. it is advisable for those black participants 10 lake at cosmopolilan view and t0 tell the story of our bmlhcrs and sisters who have so greatly aided us in our historical slruggles. Remember the stories of such people as Hugo Black. Lyndon Buincs Johnson. Earl Warren. Hubcrl Humphrey. and Rev. Fred Shultleswort h . But our most imporlzml mlc. still lies ahead as storylcllcrs for the fulurc. Remember the story of him far wclve come. but dare m tell that wt: have no! arrived. It im'l meant to sound raciallv slanted. b using the following examples: It is done merely to cite them for their historical significaiice. You see. we're not going to be like Ihc Chinese and go behind the mills of isolation and separation for mu:- hundred years. Wclrc not going to he like the Germans and call ourselves a super race and set out on a path oilconqucst. and have In walk back leaving a ll'illl lcars. 1.91 it bu: known llial m: will continue to he a functional penplci and that we will he a frcc. an induslriuus. and independent. and a never lo cease from struggling people .H----- - 59 60 Yes, black people should participate in the bicentennial, but ours is a special calling. T0 borrow the phraseol- ogy of the Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King. in 1976, let the past present, and future of this ebony- souled people ring from the Statue of Liberty to Ihe Golden Gate Bridge, from Miami Beach to the new Alaskan pipeline. And let history record that the course of human events has evolved so that black people are a truly equal and independent people. , n'- . -,.., t-JH' ' HLg'W t' ,f s 7 .h'n 'k 4 . 13k w-yagt-gttl'14 . .

Our bicentennial is July 4, 1976, so let us now assume our proper roll in this event. Maybe July 4, 2176 will tell us that there were two houses, a black one and a white one. Divided against themselves they could not stand and prosper. Now, there is one house of a color which cannot be described. But one certainly exists, the house now endures and stands strong. And maybe were not where we should be. but thank God we1re not where we used to be. I long to see the day when we may earnestly say, that America has crowned her good with brotherhood from sea to shin- ll'lg sea.

BAJN I30 It is time for the world to love, for the winds of war to cease blowing. We must let the Light shine on our children from above. Teach them daily to pray. Let them learn that God doesn't favor one color or one nation. Only then will they grow to see that His most beautiful creation is the rainbow. THE MAKING OF A NEW DAY When the Negro Moses ran her train down the tracks Bringing back slaves along freedom's way. It was the making of a new day. When John Brown preached with gunfire at Harpefs Ferry In justioe's bloodshed. he waged the fray, It was the making of a new day. When Dubois praised in poetry the souls of black folks, In a prose piece of ebony clay He envisioned the making of a new day. When Mrs. Parks did not yield her frontal bus seat, Setting the Freedom Riders in full sway It was the making of a new day. When Martin climbed up to the mountaintop, He saw that we shall overcome With the making of a new day. Brothers and sisters hold your peace There's a time coming soon When war and hatred will cease With liberty to pray and love to convey A time that will come A time that will be The making of a new day 131 An lcentennial Here! my life mapped out before me. Long ago the road was laid. Older still the one who bore me. WhtL for me. a childhood made. Now. beyond the years behind me. Still. the voice of action sounds. . . . Voices of a founding father Moving on to htgher grounds. Here and now the life seems heavy; In the past the load was light. Every man must make him ready For the sunk impending flight: From the past. the nights of yearning. T0 the future. frecdom-bound. Toward the star. the light of learning. Ever ushered by the sound 01' voices from a founding father Moving on to higher ground; Countrysides across a nation. Fertile still the living landt Newvborn now the old sensation Rising to again command. Seasons change. the lost are lonely: Yet. this dawn. a spirit found In voices of a founding father Moving on. to higher ground. Help Yourself to Happiness Everybody, Everywhere seeks happiness. ifs true. But finding it and keeping it seems difficult to do. Difficult because we think that happiness is found Only in the places where wealth and fame abound' And so we go on searching in hpalaces of pleasure Seeking recognition and monetary treasure. Unaware that happiness 15 just a sestate 0f mindh Within the reach of everyone who takes time to be kind$ For making others happy, we will be happy, too, For the happiness you give away returns to hshine on you . I33 134 NO ONE No one knows how my thoughts begin No one knows me from within No one sees what I can see No one determines my destiny No one percieves my admirations No one experiences my inner elations No one can tell when I'm feelin' blue . . .. cause . . .. No one knows me . . . . like I do. People so scared to die Because death is unknown ' But what happens lomorrow? Or even the next minute? That's unknown too, Did you ever think of that??? Man has been placed in the world in ofder that he may develop and expand his talents and capacities to their fullest extent. If he is to do so, he needs four things-knowledgc, art, technical skill, morality and religion; for truth must be known, beauty fashioned, good practiced and God feared and loved. Ottokar Prohaska: Mediatation on the Gospels MY LORD You can love the racism You can love to fight You can love the drugs You can love to spite You can love the cheating You can love to hoard You can love this ol'e world Just give me my Lord. 136 DIMENSIONS Songs of weeping men I hear Crying tears of sorrow and fear. Sorrow for days that have not come; Fear of those that have not gone. Yet a dim. sharp light I see. Flickering in a calm, black sea. Darkness strives to suppress its sway; Slill it shines, bright'ning the way. A path of turmoil is what I find. Strive to the end , I set my mind. For there my hopes are brought to life; To reach the endings of my strife. Life stands not on hopes I sense, Nor on pain, strife. 0r sorrows hence. The essence of life I will Fmd; To this task! I set my mind. ENOUGH OF THIS! Groping singing crymg being We's gonna get yall in line Flying dying buying my-ing We gonna she! yall your nasty fall.

Chess Club iMorehouse Cheerleaders A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE MOREHOUSE COLLEGE GLEE CLUB The 1975 - 76 Morehouse College Glee Club is comprised of 100 students from twenty states and one foreign country. Everyr department in the College is represented in the membership. The possession of a reliable voice and a strong deslre to sing are the only prerequisites. No aCademic credit or hnancial assistance is given for participation and each time the members are asked whether or not they wlsh to be given credit for their membership the answer :5 a unanimous no . Members have been chosen for such honors as MerrillvTravel Study Awards for overseas experience, Who's who Among American Colleges and Universities, and Phi Beta Kappa. During the 1975 - 76 year, the Glee Club will highlight the compositions of American composers, many of whom have wrltten expressly for the group; Gordon Binkard, Gerhard Krapf, T. 3. Anderson, Ulysses Kay, Frederick Tlllis, Willis Laurence James t'23l, and Frederick Hall C2D, are especially Well represented. Too, the i'Chg-itandllg tradition of performing old and rare music of black America will be a bicentennial delight. For 64 years the Morehouse College Glee Club has presented concerts wl..'.,h have been hailed as warm . . . powerful . . . dynamic . . . and interesting . Programs have been presented in cities throughout the United States as well as in five African countries. The history is highlighted with many special and notable occasions. One such occasion was the command performance at Warm Springs, Georgia where the Morehouse quartet performed for the late President of the United States, Franklin D. Roosevelt. Another notable performance by special request was the funeral services of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., an outstandlng and illustrious graduate of the College. Also in memory of Dr. King, the group has performed numerous memorial concerts, convo- cations and tributes in New York, Washington, D.C., and Atlanta. Appearances have included a convocation for his Imperial Majesty, Hallo Selassie, late Emperor of Ethiopia, both in Atlanta and in Addls Ababa. In 1969. a special honor was being se- lected as one of the three choral groups in the United States to participate in the Second International Choral Festival at Lincoln Center in New York City. In 1972, the Glee Club was selected by the United States Department of State to tour five countries Senegal, Ghana. Uganda, Nigeria, and Ethiopial in Africa. Performances in these countries were for Heads of State, as well as for the general public. Under the direction of Robert Shaw, Director and Conductor of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, the Glee Club has per- formed Beethoven's Fidelio Stravinskyls OedigusLRLx, Gershwln's Eggy mBej, Faure's Reguiem Schoenberg's G-uLe-Lzm, and the premiere production of Scott Joplin's Treemonishe. By special request, In addition to the Annual Morehouse-Spelman Christmas Concert, the group has pare .ipated in 'Robert Shaw and the Atlanta Symphonyls Christmas Festivallt Since its inception there have been only two directors of the Morehouse Glee Club. The first director and founder was the late Professor Kemper Harreld. In 1953, Professor Harreld relinquished the directorship to his outstanding pupil, Wendell P. Whalum. Dr. Whalum, renowned director, conductor, arranger, organist, and lecturer is the .Fuller E. Callaway Professor of Music at Morehouse. His vita is a long and impressive one. He serves and has served as a participant in programs sponsored by the Ford Foundation, Danforth Foundation, and Phelps-Stokes Fund as well as the Collegels Board of Trustees. .A member of Phi Beta Kappa, Dr. Whalum insists on academic excellence from Glee Club members and effers guidance and advice on important and pertinent issues. He exhibits and communicates many ideas that help to mold the lives of the students of Morehouse and es- pecially those in ghe Glee Club. Amidst a rich singing tradition, the Morehouse College Glee Club is an eminent expresslen of brotherhood, a united force of dedication and commitment, and an unselfish labor of love. Their motto might well be the title of a favorite number by Edward Graig, Brothers in Song, .5125 gt .. . M - - . . 7 i LHRL - .; ;; '.-. n3.
