Yes, peace can and must be won, to save the world from the terrible destruction of World War III.

I know that if the peace movement takes its message boldly to the Negro people a powerful force can be secured in pursuit of the greatest goal of all mankind. And the same is true of labor and the great democratic sections of our population.

I said it was my feeling that the American people would struggle for peace, and that has since been underscored by the President of these United States.

Could I say that the reason that I am here today, you know, from the mouth of the State Department itself, is: I should not be allowed to travel because I have struggled for years for the independence of the colonial peoples of Africa.

Freedom is a hard-bought thing and millions are in chains, but they strain toward the new day drawing near.

Like any other people, like fathers, mothers, sons and daughters in every land, when the issue of peace or war has been put squarely to the American people, they have registered for peace.

Americans will be amazed to find ho many of the modern dance steps are relics of the African heritage.
