Voice of the People We have, as ministers, been gready concerned about what ha* been taking place in Selma, Alabama. We nave ail witnessed the unnecessary brutality taken by sworn preserve! s of justice against those who would march in test Hying tor dieir legal rights as citizens of this great country. We. as ministers, have seen one of our own ranks biutaiky and cowaidiy Is alm unto death We all have witnessed the great nationwide reaction to these events m winch countless numbers of ministers, priests and rabbis have gone to Selma to give encomagement and say to the citizens of Selma, yes. to the country, we identify ourselves w ith these who aie discouraged and downtrodden. We identify ourselves with these who are seeking now, through tHeir own efforts and at the risk of loss of job. home, life itself, to say we are no longer content to be considered second-rate citizens, but seek the opportunities along with the obligations and responsibilities, of being equal before the law. and brothers with our fellowman before God. Yea. who are saying as well, we identify ourselves with those engaged in the common task of preserving freedom around the world, for we know that if there is any man not free to pursue his God-given destiny because . f the co. >r of his skin no man is free We identify ourselves v 'h these .n S. !ma and proclaim to the worid IF. d num of g ‘odwdl, regard:’ - »f d < by -ide in the v< nmu;i <o: < i. . oi life. We. a th<» ministers of Waikerton. are concerned that in all of Uns, we d i not segregate mu prayers lo seek to pray only tor the negro We need to remem tier and be co: • erned as well th it somehow m Gods way of working through men. the hatreds and fears of white men in the South and in the North might be alleviated and be siuwn to be groundless fears and unjust hatreds that they are. We call up n tiie |x ople of Walkerton to reinember daily in prayer and in moments of reflection ail th <■ wh-» a. c involved in tins, one of lie greatest revolutions lo take place in modern times the revolution for which the original American Revolution stood for to remember the presdeni of tiie United Slates and ins

workers in Selma, the Governor of AUbama. the sheriff and tiie safety director of Selma, the negro leaders, the white clergymen and other con* erned persons from the north, the white clergymen and their churches in tne south. Let us btiware that in our concern for what is taking place, we violate the very thing we are calling for by segregating our concerns. We now are in the season of Ixuit Ix-t us hope and pray that this might be one of the most memorable Lenten seasons in the history <>( our •■ountry a time whin men, as they were drawn to the Cross of the Savior of all mankind, were drawn to one another in brotherly love.
