Dr. Martin Luther King 1:06:02 Well, I don't think either political party can boast of clean hands in the area of civil rights. I think both parties have betrayed the cause of justice. The Democratic Party has betrayed the cause of justice by capitulating to the undemocratic practices of the Southern Dixiecrats. And I think the Republican Party has betrayed the cause by capitulating to the blatant hypocrisy of many right wing northern Republicans. And it has been this coalition of right wing northern Republicans and southern Dixiecrats that has stood in the way of every progressive step in civil rights legislation, so neither party can boast of clean hands, and in this area, now, I think, more and more, the Negro will vote for that candidate, and that party, which will take a definite stand on the basic issues of human rights and all the the issues that go along with it. And that will do something about it, not just verbal affirmation, but in terms of concrete action. And I don't think any political party will be able to boast that it has a Negro and its best pocket. And I think this is good. David Susskind 1:07:31 But it has the Democratic Party has, in fact, had and continues to have the Negro vote. And it's 70 80% of the Negro community in the big cities, Detroit, Chicago, New York, vote straight down the democratic line. Yeah. Isn't the Negro in voting that way doing himself a disservice? Dr. Martin Luther King 1:07:48 Well, I think the the Negro is caught in a very difficult position here. On the one hand, the Democratic Party has been a little closer to the masses of people on breading, but bread and butter issues. And outside of the South, negros have been able to see a degree of progressive liberalism within the Democratic Party. And here is a dilemma that you have this schizophrenic personality at the center of a party, wherein on the one hand, you see a progressive liberal thrust. And on the other hand, you see this backward reactionary thrust on the part of the Southern Dixiecrats and it presents a dilemma. The Negro choosing between the issue of civil rights and social welfare issues David Susskind 1:08:47 Medicare and education bill. But I wonder, for example, whether the republican party wins any votes for the effort, for example, in the House of Representatives recently of John Lindsay, and other congressmen to initiate on their own resources, effective civil rights legislation, not waiting on a presidential message. Do they earn Negro accolade? Dr. Martin Luther King 1:09:09 Well, I think this could become increasingly true of the Republican Party would somehow throw the yoke of division from its own shoulders. Now there again, the Negro face dilemma because just as you have an Eastland and the Democratic Party, you have a Goldwater and the Republican Party, who will come down south and make a speech and say that the Supreme Court's decision in the law of the land, and who just yesterday made it clear that he's not sure whether he will support civil rights legislation. So it is a dilemma for the Negro he doesn't when he looks to the Republican Party, he sees the same schizophrenia. He sees the same division between the progressive Javits and the cases and and the In the middle Dershkins and the reactionary Goldwater so that you, you do run into a real and David Susskind 1:10:08 The negro should begin to vote for the man and not the party would not be the more effective way Dr. Martin Luther King 1:10:12 Well, I think this will happen more and more. And this has been true that, in many communities, negros and unknown have voted for liberal Republicans over against what they considered a Democrat who didn't quite come up to this person. David Susskind 1:10:33 Does your being a minister, give you the ultimate conviction that your mission of equality of opportunity, equality of education, so forth, is going to be accomplished peacefully where the facts of history are, that human rights are almost always one in violence and bloodshed, and manifested in patients by taking up arms do you grow a little bit pessimistic about the philosophy of nonviolent resistance, however, militant that violence is?

Universal Newsreel

Sponsored by the U.S. Government during WWII, AMERICANS ALL stresses the importance of bolstering democracy through fair treatment, equality, justice and understanding between different races, religions and creeds. The film starts with a discussion of liberty and discrimination, including the distressing hate speech promoted in certain sectors of the American public. The National Conference of Christians and Jews is shown, espousing the ideas of brotherhood and religious and racial harmony, in support of democracy. The U.S. South is shown as well, with its "negro problem" shown at the 6:00 mark, with a discussion of wartime slackening of segregationist policies. Work in various political sectors and in schools to diminish prejudice is also illustrated. <p><p>The Springfield Plan is also shown at the 14 minute mark. The Springfield Plan was a widely publicized intergroup, or intercultural, education policy initiative of the 1940s which was implemented in the public school system of Springfield, Massachusetts. The Plan was the brainchild of Teachers College, Columbia University Associate Professor Clyde R. Miller and his Institute for Propaganda Analysis (IPA). The initiative was the subject of several books, numerous scholarly articles in academic journals, and a Warner Bros. short film starring Andrea King. Following the publicity it received, the plan became the national model for education in multicultural awareness and democratic citizenship during World War II, and school administrators throughout the U.S. traveled to Springfield to witness the plan in action.<p><p>The widely stated purpose of the plan was to foster democracy and eliminate racism from schooling. It involved innovative advances in curriculum, including the use of cooperative learning and democratic living classroom activities. Students also participated in projects where they learned about the history and culture of other groups in their broader community. Beyond the school, the plan expanded education into local factories where adult workers were provided with citizenship classes. Lastly, it included new methods for teaching students how to recognize racist propaganda, while it was also innovative in producing positive propaganda, publicizing the advantages of intergroup education for the entire nation.<p><p>We encourage viewers to add comments and, especially, to provide additional information about our videos by adding a comment!

People waving hands at ceremony attended by president 6. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Omar al-Bashir, Sudanese President: "As a tribute to our brothers who have signed (the agreement) today, we have first of all revoked all the death sentences against our sons who took part in the attack against Omdurman (city attacked by rebels in May 2008) (crowd cheers, shouting ''Allahu Akbar'' or ''God is great'') and today, we will release 30 percent of the people on death row." 7. Various of Khartoum skyline STORYLINE Darfur''s most powerful rebel group has initialed a truce with the Sudanese government, marking the rebel group''s return to peace talks aimed at ending the Darfur conflict. The truce between the rebel Justice and Equality Movement and the Sudanese government takes effect immediately, Idriss Deby, Chad''s president, said on Saturday in a statement. Justice and Equality Movement spokesman Ahmed Hussein said the deal initialed on Saturday was a framework agreement to guide future peace negotiations, including talks on a permanent cease-fire. He said it will be formally signed in Doha, Qatar, on Tuesday in the presence of Deby and the leaders of Sudan and Qatar. The rebel group has been the most significant holdout in efforts to end the seven-year conflict in Darfur, in which 300,000 people have lost their lives to violence, disease and displacement. The Justice and Equality Movement will take part in talks in Qatar which aim to reach a final agreement by March 15, Deby''s statement said. In Sudan''s capital, Khartoum, Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir announced he was pardoning members of the Justice and Equality Movement on death row who had been convicted for taking part in an attack close to Khartoum in May 2008. Al-Bashir told a campaign rally he had ordered the immediate release of 30 percent of those he had pardoned. According to Sudanese law only the president can pardon someone on death row or commute his or her sentence. The May 2008 attack on Khartoum''s twin city, Omdurman, was the closest a Darfur rebel group had reached the capital. The government said more than 200 people were killed in the attack that shocked Sudan at the time. Saturday''s developments come as Sudan and Chad have been working for months to improve relations soured by the spillover from the Darfur conflict, with each country accusing the other of supporting the other''s rebel groups. The UN has said 2.7 (m) million were driven from their homes in Darfur in the fighting between ethnic African rebels and the government and Arab militias.

NAME: NGA DARFUR 20060503I TAPE: EF06/0382 IN_TIME: 10:54:37:18 DURATION: 00:01:14:03 SOURCES: AP TELEVISION DATELINE: Abuja - 3 May 2006 RESTRICTIONS: SHOTLIST: 1. US Deputy Secretary of State Robert B. Zoellick arriving at meeting 2. Wide shot of meeting with Zoellick, British Cabinet member Hilary Benn 3. Pan from Zoellick to Sudanese delegation 4. SOUNDBITE: (English) Ahmed Tugod, Rebel leader (from Justice and Equality Movement) and chief negotiator "The document presented by the mediation team for us does not reflect the aspirations of our people because the documents failed to take into consideration the real issues that could solve the problem and root causes of the problems in Darfur. Therefore it is extremely difficult for us to sign this kind of document, because we cannot sell it our people and to our constituents on the ground. This is one. Secondly there is no implementation mechanisms, no guarantees for this agreement, thirdly the mediation tried to undermine the rights of the people of Darfur by avoiding discussing the real issues to solve the problems." 5. Shot of meeting STORYLINE: Sudan appeared ready on Wednesday to agree to disarm Arab militias in Darfur and to accept more rebels into its security forces, key concessions that could clear the way for real progress at the Darfur peace talks. Sudanese government spokesman Abdulrahman Zuma said his government was considering the concessions included in a revised peace agreement drafted with the help of top US and British diplomats who intervened a day earlier after rebels rejected an initial, African Union-drafted document. A Sudanese rebel involved in the negotiations offered a different version though. Ahmed Tugod, rebel leader from the Sudanese Justice and Equality Movement and chief negotiator in the talks said "the document presented by the mediation team for us does not reflect the aspirations of our people because the documents failed to take into consideration the real issues that could solve the problem and root causes of the problems in Darfur." The Justice and Equality Movement has accused the central government of neglecting impoverished Darfur for decades. He added that "it is extremely difficult for us to sign this kind of document, because we cannot sell it our people and to our constituents on the ground." He also said "there is no implementation mechanisms, no guarantees for this agreement, thirdly the mediation tried to undermine the rights of the people of Darfur by avoiding discussing the real issues to solve the problems." Earlier, Jaffer Monro, spokesman for the main Sudan Liberation Movement, had said that if the initial proposal was not significantly changed, the rebels would press for the United Nations or another body to take over the peace talks. The African Union has overseen the talks for two years, and its mediators have often expressed frustration at the seeming unwillingness of either side to compromise or adhere to a cease-fire declared in April, 2004. The US and British officials were sent to Abuja, the Nigerian capital where the talks are taking place, after thousands of Americans including several legislators protested over the weekend to demand an end to the slaughter in Darfur. African Union mediators had set a Sunday deadline for the two sides to accept the original draft, but extended that twice after meeting rebel objections. Decades of low-level tribal clashes over land and water in Darfur erupted into large-scale violence in early 2003 with rebels demanding regional autonomy. The central government is accused of responding by unleashing Arab militias known as Janjaweed upon civilians. Sudan denies backing the Janjaweed.
