Meredith speaks on Black Movemen
by Julie Karasinski
Collegian Feature Editor
Jan. 19 is a special day for our
country, as is made evident by its
recently acquired status as a Na
tional Holiday. That day is Martin
Luther King's birthday. King was
and still is a symbol of freedom and
the Black Movement. James
Meredith, who will be visiting
Behrend on Feb. 19, is an expert on
that topic.
Mr. Meredith has led a busy life,
dedicated to the Black Movement.
He was born in Attala County,
Kosciusko, Mississippi, in 1933. As
early as 1951, he was pondering his
course of action: he won the
American Legion Essay contest by
outlining his plans to make
America free. From 1951 to 1960,
he was a member of the United
States Air Force, during which time
he waged a continuous campaign in
the United States Armed Forces to
eliminate discriminatory practices.
Then he returned to Mississippi
with a plan to break the system of
white supremacy. Meredith has
made big steps for his race: he was
the first black person to ever attend

and graduate from a non-black counter the segregation and tion of all black people in the
school in Mississippi. He has also discrimination existing in the nor- world
started many demonstrations such them American states. He has even
as the Meredith Mississippi March spent time in jail fighting against
Against Fear and to Encourage injustices of all kinds. Recently, in
Voter Registration of Blacks, 1980, he founded the African

"I want to reach as
many people as possible
because I believe that it
is vitally important that
all Americans unders
tand historically why
King's birthday was
made a holiday and
what the Black Move
ment was and is
about."

Literary recognition is also on
Meredith's list of ac
complishments. He is a writer and
publisher and his works have been
found in magazines, journals, and
newspapers. He published a book
entitled Three years in Mississippi.
Since 1962, Meredith has been
speaking and lecturing all over the
world: Canada, Europe, Africa,
the Middle East, and the United
States. He's spent a lot of time in
Africa, visiting Senegal, Guinea,
Sierra Leone, Liberia, Ivory Coast,
Togo, Benin, Nigeria, Sudan,
Egypt, Kenya, Tanzania. Zim
babwe and Zambia, extending his
understanding of the black race
and its origins.
Adding to his ability to speak to
people of all ages on a subject of
such great importance, he spent a
year as a visiting professor at the
University of Cincinnati. Says
Meredith, "This experience gave
me the opportunity to really get a
measure of and a feel for the state
of mind of today's college and high
school students who were not
around during the 1950'5, 1960's
and 1970'5."
Meredith will be spending the
day at Behrend on Feb. 19. From
noon to 2:00 p. m. there will be a
workshop with students called
"Students and their responsibility
in a multi-racial society," from
5:00 to 7:00 p. m. a dinner with
students, faculty, staff and minori
ty community leaders is planned
and then at 7:30, in Reed 117 is a
community lecture entitled "What
can we do today?"
"Larger--
and tastier
than life!"
