...disaffection by the admittedly arduous process of mending the social and political dislocations of the times: uncertain wars, a capricious draft system, inequitable distribution of opportunity and income, institutions too immured against necessary change. The goal probably should not be to eliminate drugs entirely, which is impossible, but to control them and diminish their allure by offering the only valid alternative?a life of challenge and fulfillment. That, as kids who have reached a mature understanding of drugs already know, can also be a turn-on, and a better...

It is hardly an accident that in most industries where companies control hiring, training and promotion, the Negro gets a far better break than when such matters are left in labor...
