Legislative Seats
The few Southern legislative
seats and mayoralties can be
increased to Congressional seats; in
time, blacks could have even more
than the strength of organized labor
in state-wide votes - but it is all a
matter of muscle.
And the larger point here is that
effective political action begins
with (1) a clear knowledge of what
is possible - what is truly the
shortest and fastest distance
between two points and - and even
more important - (2) the desire,
the commitment to spend enough
of one's life to making the possible
real.
Julian Bond is the master of
both.
