After I took acid, I told my parents I had dropped [taken it]. They got really really uptight and said acid could make you go insane. But at least they didn't care about grass any more. They're just worried about grass because it's against the law. They never threatened to call the heat [police] or anything. They never even told me never to use drugs again. They just said: "Not in the house...

...which they mainly hold jobs of low pay and skill. The International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union has managed to negotiate big pay raises for cutters and pressers, who are mostly white, while settling for minuscule increases for many of its 150,000 nonwhite members. In construction, Negroes make up about 35% of the laborers' union. Black membership is also high in the so-called "mud trades"-bricklaying, plastering, hod carrying-that white workers increasingly shun. There are few Negro electricians, sheet-metal workers, glaziers, plumbers or pipe fitters. Particularly in the South, there are still several hundred...
