- James BaldwinRules this world.
- James BaldwinIt still has the power
- James Baldwinit still has the power if it will do
- James Baldwinit to change the structure
- James Baldwinof South Africa.
- James BaldwinIt has the power if it will to
- James Baldwinprevent the death of another Martin Luther King
- James BaldwinJr.
- James BaldwinIt has the power to the will to enforce
- James Baldwinmy government to cease dropping bombs in Southeast
- James BaldwinAsia.
- James BaldwinThese are crimes committed in the name
- James Baldwinof the Christian church
- James Baldwinand no more than we can then we absolve
- James Baldwinthe Germans were saying I couldn't help it.
- James BaldwinI didn't know what it was about.
- James BaldwinI knew of people being taken away in the night
- James Baldwinbut they had nothing to do with me.
- James BaldwinWe were very hard on the Germans about that.
- James BaldwinBut Germany is also a Christian nation.
- James BaldwinAnd what the Germans did in the
- James Baldwinsecond world war
- James Baldwinsince they are human and we are human too.
- James BaldwinThere is no guarantee
- James Baldwinthat we can do that.
- James BaldwinAnd in fact
- James Baldwinwe are doing that right now.
- James BaldwinWhen a structure
- James Baldwinmatter what structure it may be
- James Baldwina state
- James Baldwinor a church
- James Baldwinor a country
- James Baldwinbecomes too expensive for the world
- James Baldwinto afford
- James Baldwinit is longer responsive
- James Baldwinto the needs of the world
- James Baldwinthat structure sooner
- James Baldwinor later.
- James BaldwinAnd quite apart from the will of any man
- James Baldwinthat structure is doomed
- James Baldwinif the Christian
- James Baldwinfaith cannot recover
- James Baldwinits lord and savior
- James BaldwinJesus Christ.
- James BaldwinThen we will discover the meaning
- James Baldwinof what he said what he meant when he
- James Baldwinsaid in
- James Baldwinso far as you've done it unto
- James Baldwinthe least of these
- James Baldwinyou've done it unto me.
- James BaldwinThank you.
- James BaldwinLadies and gentlemen
- James BaldwinI am sure that
- James Baldwinbehind your applause
- James Baldwinthere was a conviction
- James Baldwinand the impression
- James Baldwinthat what you have heard spoken
- James Baldwinby our friend to you
- James Baldwinthere is a strong
- James Baldwinperson of
- James Baldwininterest a person to
- James Baldwinbe
- James Baldwinin and the life
- James Baldwinof this our brother
- James Baldwinreally belongs to
- James Baldwinwhat he has recognized
- James Baldwinas being right
- James Baldwinand just
- James Baldwinand to be hope for
- James Baldwinand to be prayed for.
- James BaldwinAfter having heard this
- James Baldwinfirst part of this
- James Baldwinafternoon's addresses
- James BaldwinI know I can
- James Baldwingive it to
- James Baldwina lot calmer of him
- James Baldwinand hope that
- James Baldwinwe shall have similar
- James Baldwinthe same
- James Baldwinimpression from what
- James Baldwinhe represented as
- James Baldwinrepresentative of
- James Baldwinthe white race really
- James Baldwinhas to terror to hours.
- James BaldwinWho was a great deal belong
- James Baldwinto this kind
- James Baldwinand sort of race.
- James BaldwinNot
- James Baldwinso you
- James Baldwinimposed on me an impossible order
- James Baldwinclearly out of the question that I should
- James Baldwinbe able to
- James Baldwincommunicate with you
- James Baldwinin terms as passionate
- James Baldwinand sincere
- James Baldwinas those to which we have just
- James Baldwinlistened.
- James BaldwinThere is much in what we have heard
- James Baldwinon which we will wish to reflect
- James Baldwinand which we shall long
- James Baldwinremember
- James Baldwinbut as we reflect
- James Baldwinon that remarkable statement.
- James BaldwinI would ask you with me this afternoon
- James Baldwinto turn to
- James Baldwinlook at these great problems of
- James Baldwinrace
- James Baldwinand the world community
- James Baldwinfrom a different angle from the angle
- James Baldwinof international affairs.
- James BaldwinI had said once that I jumped at the opportunity
- James Baldwinof coming here before I knew the
- James Baldwinordeal which was prepared for me.
- James BaldwinIt was not easy because
- James BaldwinI'm only on short leave of absence
- James Baldwinfrom the United Nations in New York
- James Baldwinand there we in
- James Baldwinprison are delegates were
- James Baldwinor severe sentences
- James Baldwinin continuous servitude.
- James BaldwinWe survive on a thin diet
- James Baldwinof diplomatic oratory
- James Baldwinwe labored under the lack
- James Baldwinof constant crises
- James Baldwinand we can very seldom escape
- James Baldwinbut I was given a ticket of leave to
- James Baldwinattend a United Nations
- James BaldwinConference which finished in Bucharest
- James Baldwinyesterday on Saturday
- James Baldwinand another which starts in Geneva
- James Baldwintomorrow on Monday.
- James BaldwinAnd when I was asked if I could escape again
- James Baldwinto come here on today on the
- James BaldwinSunday it seemed to me
- James Baldwinphysically impossible.
- James BaldwinBut when the World Council of Churches
- James Baldwinmakes an invitation
- James Baldwinit brooks no excuses
- James Baldwinand recognizes no barriers
- James Baldwinit encourages us to
- James Baldwinmake the maximum use of the Sabbath
- James BaldwinI was quickly persuaded to
- James Baldwinis almost on the direct route
- James Baldwinbetween the queen
- James Baldwinbetween Bucharest
- James Baldwinand Geneva
- James Baldwinand I discovered that the World
- James BaldwinCouncil has any
- James Baldwinhuman Menocal ingenuity
- James Baldwinboth in arranging heavenly transport
- James Baldwinand in disdaining all
- James Baldwinearthly divisions
- James Baldwinand distances.
- James BaldwinSo here I am and it seems to me
- James Baldwinby no less than a miracle.
- James BaldwinI'm very happy to have been enabled to
- James Baldwinget here
- James Baldwinand glad to be able to pay my respects
- James Baldwinto this university famous university
- James Baldwinin these modern times.
- James BaldwinThere is no place like a university.
- James BaldwinIf you want to make a protest
- James Baldwinthere is no place like a university if you
- James Baldwinwant to start a campaign.
- James BaldwinAnd to be in Sweden
- James Baldwinfor Sweden is an honor to lead
- James Baldwinan international endeavor.
- James BaldwinThat seems to be an inexhaustible supply
- James Baldwinof Swedes to give us a lead.
- James BaldwinThere are innumerable examples
- James Baldwinwhen the secretary general needed a man
- James Baldwinto tackle them in the Middle East.
- James BaldwinOne of the most gigantic
- James Baldwinand one of the most daunting assignments
- James Baldwinever to be allotted to one man.
- James BaldwinHe sent for Ambassador Gooner yachting
- James BaldwinAmanda whose steadiness of nerve
- James Baldwinand patient
- James Baldwindetermination
- James Baldwinand wise judgment time that paid tribute.
- James BaldwinI once had the privilege of serving on a United
- James BaldwinNations group set up to advise
- James Baldwinon South Africa questions
- James Baldwinunder the chairmanship of Ambassador
- James BaldwinOliver Dial
- James Baldwinwho is as gifted
- James Baldwinand as tireless as her
- James Baldwinfamous husband.
- James BaldwinThere is no permanent representative
- James Baldwinat the United Nations more highly
- James Baldwinrespected than Sweden's
- James Baldwinpresent ambassador
- James BaldwinFerk Austro.
- James BaldwinNone of us concerned
- James Baldwinwith the world community will ever forget the
- James Baldwinoutstanding life
- James Baldwinand work of Dagg
- James Baldwinthat is
- James Baldwinthere is no country in the world
- James Baldwinwhich has given more than Sweeden
- James Baldwinin international leadership.
- James BaldwinI was Mordovia happy to respond
- James Baldwinto a call from the World Council of Churches
- James Baldwincertainly I have no religious qualification
- James Baldwinand I trust no one imagines that I have any
- James Baldwinreal right to be on such a respectable
- James Baldwinplatform.
- James BaldwinBut a few years ago
- James BaldwinI was lucky enough at the suggestion
- James Baldwinof the World Council to travel through
- James BaldwinAfrica West
- James BaldwinAfrica East Africa
- James Baldwinand Central Africa
- James Baldwinwith Professor Zaid K.
- James Baldwinmethods.
- James BaldwinHe was one of the most remarkable men
- James BaldwinI have ever met.
- James BaldwinWhen he died in America a few months ago
- James Baldwinhe was mourned through throughout
- James BaldwinAfrica
- James Baldwinand amongst all the delegates at the United Nations
- James Baldwinwhere he had been the first Ambassador
- James Baldwinof Botswana.
- James BaldwinI learned to respect him
- James Baldwinand to love him as he was respected
- James Baldwinand loved by so many throughout
- James BaldwinAfrica and in Geneva
- James Baldwinand New York
- James Baldwinand in Washington
- James Baldwinwith his gentleness
- James Baldwinand his good humor
- James Baldwinand his steadiness
- James Baldwinand his devotion
- James Baldwinand his courage.
- James BaldwinHe was amongst the leaders
- James Baldwinof Africa in his day
- James Baldwinhappy to think that his son is amongst us
- James Baldwinhere today.
- James BaldwinAnd I will always be grateful to the World Council
- James Baldwinof Churches for giving me
- James Baldwinthe opportunity to work
- James Baldwinwith him in Africa
- James Baldwinhaving stated my reasons for welcoming the invitation
- James Baldwinfrom the World Council
- James Baldwinand having told you
- James Baldwinhow good I was to come
- James Baldwinand why I'm so glad that I did.
- James BaldwinI must say that I am alarmed by
- James Baldwinthe magnitude
- James Baldwinof the subject of our discussion
- James Baldwinand certainly my alarm has not been diminished
- James Baldwinby listening to the
- James Baldwinpassionate speech to which we have just listened
- James Baldwinwhich was worth coming.
- James BaldwinMay I say several thousand
- James Baldwinmiles to hear.
- James BaldwinI'm no expert
- James Baldwinand I'm no scholar.
- James BaldwinI am by training
- James Baldwinand administrator
- James Baldwinand buying to Nation politician.
- James BaldwinI have lived most of my working life amongst
- James BaldwinArabs
- James Baldwinand Africans
- James Baldwinand West Indians.
- James BaldwinWith two intervals amongst Greeks
- James Baldwinand Turks
- James Baldwinand then for the past seven years I have
- James Baldwinworked in or for the United Nations.
- James BaldwinI claim to know something about the world community
- James Baldwinbut I admit that I know very little at first
- James Baldwinhand at least about white racism
- James Baldwineven about the British I'm ignorant.
- James BaldwinBut I went overseas when I was 21 years
- James Baldwinof age and except for short leaves
- James BaldwinI have not returned home since.
- James BaldwinBut I must go on to say that I am
- James Baldwindeeply concerned
- James Baldwinand interested in the subject of race.
- James BaldwinI care more about racial justice
- James Baldwinand racial equality I think
- James Baldwinthan anything else in the world.
- James BaldwinI should dearly love to make some contribution
- James Baldwinin those causes.
- James BaldwinI believe that race is the dominant problem
- James Baldwinof our time
- James Baldwincoupled as it is
- James Baldwinwith the world problems of poverty
- James Baldwinand population
- James Baldwinand youth.
- James BaldwinI am convinced that race is the most explosive
- James Baldwinand the most dangerous fuel
- James Baldwinwhich the world must face.
- James BaldwinBut again I must warn you that I cannot speak
- James Baldwinas a sociologist
- James Baldwinor an anthropologist
- James BaldwinI can speak about race solely as an administrator
- James Baldwinand a politician who has graduated
- James Baldwinfrom the School of
- James Baldwincolonial administration to the University
- James Baldwinof International Affairs.
- James BaldwinWith that limited qualification
- James BaldwinI want to address myself to three
- James Baldwinmain questions.
- James BaldwinWhat effect on race relations
- James Baldwinand racial animosity has been caused
- James Baldwinby the end of colonialism
- James Baldwinand the consequent creation of the new nations
- James Baldwinof Asia and Africa.
- James BaldwinWhat are the present dangers of racial
- James Baldwinconfrontation on a world wide scale.
- James BaldwinWhat prospect is that of reducing
- James Baldwinracial tension into in international relations
- James Baldwinand avoiding racial conflict
- James Baldwinand working towards racial understanding
- James Baldwinand cooperation.
- James BaldwinI shall endeavor to answer those difficult questions
- James Baldwinby speaking strictly from my own
- James Baldwinexperience
- James Baldwinand from my own conviction
- James Baldwinfirst I can speak
- James Baldwinwith personal knowledge
- James Baldwinabout the end of colonialism
- James Baldwinin nearly the whole of the first half
- James Baldwinof this century as you know
- James Baldwinthe world was still dominated by the
- James Baldwinso-called great powers.
- James BaldwinThe edifice of colonialism
- James Baldwinstill stood complete.
- James BaldwinBut in the third quarter of the century
- James Baldwinwe have just seen one of the most astonishing
- James Baldwintransformations in history.
- James BaldwinThe wind of change has blown the
- James Baldwinold structure of colonialism
- James Baldwinclean away
- James Baldwinthe French the Beldon
- James Baldwinand the Dutch empires have disappeared
- James Baldwinor the greatest empire of all
- James Baldwinthe British Empire has been transformed
- James Baldwininto a free commonwealth.
- James BaldwinDuring the first decade of my
- James Baldwinoverseas service my
- James Baldwincountry governed a quarter of the population
- James Baldwinof the world.
- James BaldwinNow in the British Commonwealth all about
- James Baldwin1 percent of the 750
- James Baldwinbillion people of the Commonwealth
- James Baldwinlive in independent
- James Baldwinsovereign countries.
- James BaldwinThe fact that we are having some trouble
- James Baldwinwith the 1 percent
- James Baldwindoes not take away from this speed
- James Baldwinor from the far reaching effect
- James Baldwinof that sweeping achievement.
- James BaldwinThe number of countries represented at the United
- James BaldwinNations has more than doubled
- James Baldwinand more than half the members of the United
- James BaldwinNations are now after a wayf
- James BaldwinI am concerned today to discuss the effect
- James Baldwinof this revolutionary development
- James Baldwinnot on the Asians
- James Baldwinand the Africans.
- James BaldwinThat would alone take up more all
- James Baldwinmy time.
- James BaldwinWe are today speaking of white racism
- James Baldwinand the world community.
- James BaldwinSo I wish to make some comment on the effect
- James Baldwinof this change on the White nations on
- James Baldwinthe White West.
- James BaldwinWhat has been their reaction to the end of
- James Baldwinempire
- James Baldwinand the emergence of the new nations of Asia
- James Baldwinand Africa.
- James BaldwinAnd the answer to that question is disturbing
- James Baldwinand depressing.
- James BaldwinWe might have hoped to see a greater
- James Baldwinreadiness to help the new nations
- James Baldwinin tackling their manifold tasks
- James Baldwinand the growing eagerness to enable
- James Baldwinthem to overcome their formidable obstacles.
- James BaldwinSome of them such as are not for
- James Baldwinfrontiers being the
- James Baldwindirect legacy of the colonial
- James Baldwinera.
- James BaldwinWe might have hoped for a recognition that
- James Baldwinthe new nations faced an exciting
- James Baldwinchallenge which called
- James Baldwinout for co-operation
- James Baldwinand assistance from the experienced
- James Baldwinand the older nations.
- James BaldwinWe might at least have expected a recognition
- James Baldwinthat the prosperity of the old world
- James Baldwinwill in the end be dependent
- James Baldwinon the stable progress of the new
- James Baldwinrealisation that the old nations
- James Baldwincannot safely survive
- James Baldwinas islands of affluence in a sea
- James Baldwinof poverty and misery.
- James BaldwinWhat we have seen as being something very different.
- James BaldwinThere is I am sad to say
- James Baldwina growing apathy in many
- James BaldwinWestern nations towards world affairs.
- James BaldwinThe apathy turns to antipathy.
- James BaldwinThere is a creeping indifference
- James Baldwinand then in growing irritation
- James Baldwinan inclination to escape
- James Baldwinfrom distant problems so perplexing.
- James BaldwinThere is a turning away in bewilderment
- James Baldwinand in suburban selfishness
- James Baldwinor in what some calls prosperous
- James Baldwinprovincialism from
- James Baldwinthe bad news coming from Asia
- James Baldwinand Africa to
- James Baldwinuse Bobrow Bordes words
- James Baldwinin the world at large.
- James BaldwinWe are still tribalists he says.
- James BaldwinThe child that styles in distant
- James BaldwinBihar is not our child.
- James BaldwinThe millions without land
- James Baldwinand bread in Latin America lie beyond
- James Baldwinthe limits of our imagination
- James Baldwinpitiful ambitions of illiterate Africa
- James Baldwinare not our concern
- James Baldwinfor us.
- James BaldwinThe humanity for which we feel a
- James Baldwinfull moral that obligation
- James Baldwinruns up to the frontier
- James Baldwinwhen I am speaking in my own country.
- James BaldwinI used the strongest language
- James Baldwinin attacking the apathy
- James Baldwinand the antipathy.
- James BaldwinI do not need or wish to do so here
- James Baldwinin less than a quarter of a century my
- James Baldwincountry has enfranchised
- James Baldwinand brought into the councils of the world.
- James BaldwinA quarter of the population of the world.
- James BaldwinAnd what is more each British
- James Baldwincolonial territory attaining independence
- James Baldwinin our Commonwealth did so
- James Baldwinon the basis of free elections
- James Baldwinand representative government
- James Baldwinand independent courts.
- James BaldwinWe can rightly be proud of the record.
- James BaldwinIt is not surprising that the relinquishment
- James Baldwinof empire is so complete
- James Baldwinand so rapid that
- James Baldwinshould produce a reaction.
- James BaldwinI'm proud of the achievement
- James Baldwinand I'm concerned about the reaction.
- James BaldwinIt is not for me to speak about similar reactions
- James Baldwinin the United States
- James Baldwinor in other Western countries.
- James BaldwinWe are all familiar
- James Baldwinwith the evidence.
- James BaldwinThere has been a succession of failures
- James Baldwinand an escalation of
- James Baldwinfrustrations in Asia
- James Baldwinand in Africa
- James Baldwinthe upheavals in the Congo
- James BaldwinGhana Nigeria
- James Baldwinthe stranglehold of race domination
- James Baldwinin southern Africa
- James Baldwinthe perpetuation of hate
- James Baldwinand bloodshed in the Middle East.
- James BaldwinAnd last but by no means least the
- James BaldwinVietnam War
- James Baldwinall contribute to the general malaise
- James Baldwinof public feeling
- James Baldwinthe forces of violence
- James Baldwinand domination seem
- James Baldwinto be in the ascendant.
- James BaldwinMy generation has endured two
- James Baldwinworld wars
- James Baldwinand now whatever it looks in the world
- James Baldwinseems not a better hope for the future
- James Baldwinbut destruction
- James Baldwinand degradation
- James Baldwinand mounting danger.
- James BaldwinOlder people feel they've had enough.
- James BaldwinNot perhaps surprising that they should seek
- James Baldwinto opt out
- James Baldwinof further international involvement
- James Baldwinin the effort.
- James BaldwinTheir attitude might be summed up in the old
- James Baldwinversus void of strong
- James Baldwindesire and fear.
- James BaldwinLife white ocean crust.
- James BaldwinNo more strife
- James Baldwindie little bark to steer
- James Baldwinwith the tide
- James Baldwinand near the shore.
- James BaldwinThat is the prevailing
- James Baldwinfeeling that I find amongst many of the Western
- James Baldwinpeople in these days I should.
- James BaldwinI shall presently suggest to you
- James Baldwinthat we can expect a very different attitude
- James Baldwinfrom the new generation.
- James BaldwinBut for the moment I sum up my
- James Baldwinanswer to my first question by saying
- James Baldwinthat the new world
- James Baldwinwhich has emerged in the past quarter
- James Baldwinof a century with the end of colonialism
- James Baldwinhas created in the minds of many of
- James Baldwinthose in the White West
- James Baldwina confusion
- James Baldwinand a disillusion
- James Baldwinwhich breed isolationist.
- James BaldwinI don't know if this could be called white racism
- James Baldwinbut it is surely negative
- James BaldwinBarram unhealthy.
- James BaldwinIt increases the danger of a division
- James Baldwina gulf
- James Baldwina gulf in the world between the White West
- James Baldwinand the rest
- James Baldwinit makes it all the more necessary to turn
- James Baldwinto the new generation
- James Baldwinto shake off the pessimism
- James Baldwinand the defeatism of the old.
- James BaldwinNow let me count how
- James Baldwinthe media
- James Baldwinconsider with you the the second
- James Baldwinquestion I raised
- James Baldwinthe question what are the dangers of racial
- James Baldwinconfrontation
- James Baldwinon a worldwide scale.
- James BaldwinWhile there has been a tendency to turn away
- James Baldwinfrom international responsibilities
- James Baldwinamongst the countries of the white West
- James Baldwinand a growing disenchantment
- James Baldwinwith development aid
- James Baldwinand generally a supercilious
- James Baldwinattitude to the failures of the new nations.
- James BaldwinThere has been a widening of the gulf
- James Baldwinbetween the two worlds
- James Baldwinthe world of the affluent
- James Baldwincomfortable complacent
- James Baldwinwhite people of the old nations
- James Baldwinon the one hand
- James Baldwinand the hungry overcrowded
- James Baldwindiscontented coloured
- James Baldwinpeople of the new nations on the other.
- James BaldwinI have long felt that this gulf creates
- James Baldwinthe greatest danger in the world.
- James BaldwinSo of many of us
- James Baldwinyou will remember or remember what Oussama
- James Baldwinsaid these are
- James Baldwinhis words.
- James BaldwinThere is a clear prospect
- James Baldwinthat racial conflict if we cannot
- James Baldwincurb and finally eliminate it
- James Baldwinwill grow into a destructive monster
- James Baldwincompared to which the religious
- James Baldwinand ideological conflicts of the
- James Baldwinpast will seem like family
- James Baldwinquarrels.
- James BaldwinSuch a conflict will
- James Baldwineat away the possibilities for
- James Baldwingood of all that mankind
- James Baldwinhas hitherto achieved
- James Baldwinand reduce men to the lowest
- James Baldwinand most besty a level of intolerance
- James Baldwinand hatred.
- James BaldwinThis for the sake of all our children whatever
- James Baldwintheir race and color
- James Baldwinmust not be permitted to have
- James Baldwinwe cannot claim that there's been any improvement
- James Baldwinin recent years.
- James BaldwinIndeed my own belief is that the situation
- James Baldwinhas become much more serious
- James Baldwinand much more dangerous.
- James BaldwinThe greatest seriousness
- James Baldwinand the greater danger to drive not only
- James Baldwinfrom worse relations between the
- James Baldwinraces.
- James BaldwinThe greater danger arises from the fact
- James Baldwinthat the problem of race is now Indic
- James Baldwinstrict complete tied
- James Baldwinto the problem of poverty
- James Baldwinand the problem of population
- James Baldwinand the problem of youth.
- James BaldwinWe see the danger in
- James Baldwinstark and crude form in Africa.
- James BaldwinThe forces of African nationalism
- James Baldwinhave come down through West
- James Baldwinand East and Central Africa right up
- James Baldwinto the rivers and Beezy
- James Baldwinnow north of the river.
- James BaldwinThere are more than 200 million
- James BaldwinAfricans controlling their own destinies
- James Baldwinsouth of the river
- James Baldwinexcept in three small territories
- James Baldwinformerly British colonies.
- James BaldwinNo single African has any effective
- James Baldwinsay in the central government of his country
- James Baldwinwho imagines that that confrontation.
- James BaldwinA confrontation across the river
- James Baldwinbetween African nationalism
- James Baldwinto the north
- James Baldwinand white supremacy to the south
- James Baldwincan be easily
- James Baldwinor quickly
- James Baldwinor even peaceably settled.
- James BaldwinI come from Bucharest
- James Baldwinwhere for the past few days the heads of
- James Baldwinthe special specialized agencies
- James Baldwinof the United Nations have been discussing
- James Baldwinwith the secretary general
- James Baldwinand some score of national delegations.
- James BaldwinInternational questions of aid
- James Baldwinand trade and development.
- James BaldwinWe deplored the fact that the first development
- James Baldwindecades had failed to produce the results
- James Baldwinwe hope for.
- James BaldwinWe had to admit that the conference on trade
- James Baldwinand development in New Delhi this summer
- James Baldwinhad made very little progress.
- James BaldwinI came away from Bucharest
- James Baldwinand now go on to the Economic
- James Baldwinand Social Council in Geneva
- James Baldwinwithin the womb of overwhelming sense
- James Baldwinof the magnitude of the task
- James Baldwinand the inadequacy of the efforts so far
- James Baldwinare made to cope
- James Baldwinwith it.
- James BaldwinWe know the staggering statistics
- James Baldwinall too well.
- James BaldwinHalf the people of the world
- James Baldwinlive near or below the starvation
- James Baldwinlevel.
- James BaldwinBy 1980
- James Baldwinthere will be another thousand million mouths
- James Baldwinto be fed.
- James BaldwinIn India alone for instance the population
- James Baldwinincreases by a million a month.
- James BaldwinI used to speak of the need to narrow
- James Baldwinthe gap between the
- James Baldwinrich and poor nations of the world.
- James BaldwinI don't anymore.
- James BaldwinThe gap is not Natalie.
- James BaldwinIt is rapidly getting wider
- James Baldwinin the poorer countries including Great countries
- James Baldwinlike India and China.
- James BaldwinThe average yearly earnings
- James Baldwinare now about 30 pounds per head
- James Baldwinand we are told by the Economist that
- James Baldwinwith luck
- James Baldwinthe figure might rise to 50 pounds
- James Baldwinper head per year by the end of the
- James Baldwincentury.
- James BaldwinBut meanwhile at the other end of
- James Baldwinthe scale in the United States
- James Baldwinthe average earning per head is now a thousand
- James Baldwinpounds a year.
- James BaldwinAnd at present trends by the end of the century
- James Baldwinthe average per head in America will increase
- James Baldwinto two thousand pounds a year.
- James BaldwinThe ratio will not be 30 to a thousand
- James Baldwinbut 50 to 2000.
- James BaldwinThat's enough now to the gap.
- James BaldwinIt's getting rapidly wider
- James Baldwinthe gap is growing into a gaping
- James Baldwingulf
- James Baldwinand all the time the monster
- James Baldwinthe population
- James Baldwinis gaining on us.
- James BaldwinWe have to add to the dangers of poverty
- James Baldwinand the dangers of population the dangers of
- James Baldwinyouth.
- James BaldwinWhen I went down through Africa
- James Baldwinwith Xade K. Matthews a year
- James Baldwinor two ago they told
- James Baldwinus in one country after another that more
- James Baldwinthan half the population
- James Baldwinis under 20 years of age.
- James BaldwinNow more of the young people are going to school
- James Baldwinthey're not going to be content to go back
- James Baldwinto scratch a miserable livelihood
- James Baldwinby antiquated methods
- James Baldwinfrom eroded land as their fathers did before
- James Baldwinthem.
- James BaldwinWe have precious little time.
- James BaldwinAll these dangers of poverty
- James Baldwinand population
- James Baldwinand youth are desperately
- James Baldwinserious in themselves.
- James BaldwinBut it is the addition of the race issue
- James Baldwinwhich so greatly adds to the danger
- James Baldwinguna Mardel was saying
- James Baldwinonly recently the most ugly prospect
- James Baldwinof our world that could be imagined
- James Baldwinwould be an international class
- James Baldwinstruggle between the poor
- James Baldwinand the rich nations poisoned
- James Baldwinby the ratio complex
- James Baldwinin the world in which I live in the United Nations.
- James BaldwinThese combined tissues of poverty
- James Baldwinpopulation youth
- James Baldwinand race increasingly
- James Baldwindominate our proceedings.
- James BaldwinThey are issues so serious
- James Baldwinand so dangerous that
- James Baldwinthey demand not only action by individuals
- James Baldwinand by governments
- James Baldwinbut by international initiative too.
- James BaldwinWhile I am constantly conscious
- James Baldwinof the dangers I am equally conscious
- James Baldwinof the limitations of the action open
- James Baldwinto us
- James Baldwinthis is a source of constant
- James Baldwinfrustration.
- James BaldwinWe have to recognize what can be done
- James Baldwinand what cannot.
- James BaldwinWe must face those limitations
- James Baldwinhonestly and admit them.
- James BaldwinVain gestures
- James Baldwinand sweeping declarations will not
- James Baldwinsolve anything.
- James BaldwinThey may even do harm.
- James BaldwinThey may raise false hopes
- James Baldwinthe forces of domination
- James Baldwinand reaction are strong
- James Baldwinand arrogant
- James Baldwinand well-organized
- James Baldwinand will lead
- James Baldwinthe forces of conciliation
- James Baldwinand understanding are often weak
- James Baldwinand hesitant
- James Baldwinand scarcely that at all.
- James BaldwinWe should do no good by failing to
- James Baldwinsee the power
- James Baldwinof our adversaries adversaries
- James Baldwinor by attempting to do too much too
- James Baldwinsoon.
- James BaldwinI often say that the task is one not for
- James Baldwinthe cavalry
- James Baldwinbut for the sappers.
- James BaldwinSo it is in southern Africa.
- James BaldwinThere are some who say that all we have to do is to
- James Baldwinsound the bugles
- James Baldwinand all of the charge
- James Baldwinsomething less much less dramatic
- James Baldwinand less spectacular.
- James BaldwinMaybe all that we can achieve
- James Baldwinbut we must show just what I would wish
- James Baldwinto emphasize even
- James Baldwinwith those limitations.
- James BaldwinWe must show that on our side we will not
- James Baldwingive up.
- James BaldwinWe must show that even when
- James Baldwinthe positive action open to us
- James Baldwinis limited we shall not fail to take
- James Baldwinit.
- James BaldwinWe must show that for us there will be no going
- James Baldwinback
- James Baldwinand no betrayal.
- James BaldwinThere was a time in the last century
- James Baldwinwhen my country took an honorable lead
- James Baldwinwhen political leaders of all parties
- James Baldwinworked first for the abolition of slavery
- James Baldwinand then for the suppression of the slave trade.
- James BaldwinParliament voted twenty million pounds
- James Baldwina vast sum in those days to free the slaves.
- James BaldwinThe Royal Navy for nearly
- James Baldwinhalf a century a further great cost
