GOODLOW We are not making light When we say the so-called white For segregation and discrimin ation, Has brought about a condition That few people realize Is taking place before their very eyes. Some folks who are so color blind, Would bo horrified to find They too, would be classed as black— If science proved the fact. Low salaries, segregation and discrimination, Has forced thousands of Negroes, To pass as white to better their condition— And we never give them away When they’re passing for an O'fay. Imagine what two and three generations have done. Thanks to segregation and dis crimination. Many a white criminal, Seeking a safe hiding place Has passed as one of our race And often goes safely through life, Classed as colored and not white I envy a very dark person For the simple reason, They have something very precious. Which I do not posses. And that is racial pureness— Until there is no more segre gation and discrimination. This problem will continue to grow, We hope our country will hear our stjng, The Song of the Negro thirteen million strong, “Let My People Go!” For we are tired of segregation discrimination and jim crow And are ready to fight here and now, And die if need be— For our God given rights!"
