...miles from home to be insulted by some girl in the enlisted men's club who's been hanging around with some whites. She calls me nigger. Why? Somebody taught her.' They don't want to take the same pushing around they took in Philadelphia and Detroit, Hough and Watts. They're not ready for it, and they won't put up with...

It is problematic, hough, because the Holyoke and blue collar workers are being intimidated by their supervisors.

In Chicago, we listened to Jesse Jackson, heir-apparent to leadership in Martin Luther King's Southern Christian Leadership Conference. In Cleveland's Hough ghetto, the group stayed with families in ghetto apartments. In San Francisco, a motel manager emptied enough rooms of prostitutes to crowd the group in-and got himself beaten up by their pimps in return. The pimps who stayed were anxious to talk, mostly about police abuse of their rights...
