He that provideth not for his own. And 00:22:03.848 --> 00:22:10.637 especially those of his own household is worse than an infidel. 00:22:10.670 --> 00:22:15.467 And how are we going to provide for our children and our selves and the 00:22:15.500 --> 00:22:19.637 members of our household? 00:22:19.670 --> 00:22:24.696 You have a responsibility to support us in this movement to get jobs and 00:22:24.729 --> 00:22:30.285 equality for yourselves and for your children. 00:22:30.318 --> 00:22:36.467 And the only way we're going to get jobs and to Have equality is we're 00:22:36.500 --> 00:22:43.877 going to have to Band together and work together. And join up in some 00:22:43.910 --> 00:22:47.347 organization like the National Association for the Advancement of Colored 00:22:47.380 --> 00:22:54.426 People, where we can move forward as a group and Bring our own race and 00:22:54.459 --> 00:23:00.206 our own family and our own church forward. 00:23:00.239 --> 00:23:06.416 And I ask you this Sunday morning to pray for the NAACP and its leaders. 00:23:06.449 --> 00:23:10.686 And we ask you to pray for the leaders that you have elected to go out to 00:23:10.719 --> 00:23:14.006 the House of Representatives to represent you, and they have represented 00:23:14.039 --> 00:23:22.039 you well. For last week they sent to the Senate House Bill 164. 00:23:23.229 --> 00:23:27.467 That was passed that would make it illegal for a person to discriminate 00:23:27.500 --> 00:23:33.506 against you or me because of our color. In any place of public 00:23:33.539 --> 00:23:35.877 accommodation. 00:23:35.910 --> 00:23:39.666 But it is in the Senate now and it's going to fail in the Senate unless 00:23:39.699 --> 00:23:45.137 you do something about it. What can we do? First, we must write letters to 00:23:45.170 --> 00:23:51.585 our senator. We have 2 senators in Maricopa County. And each one of us can 00:23:51.618 --> 00:23:58.545 write to each senator individually. Write to Senator Hilliard T. Brooke. 00:23:58.578 --> 00:24:06.578 That's Hiliot T. Brook, B R 00 K. or Senator Paul, Paul L. Singer, S I N 00:24:08.818 --> 00:24:15.266 G E R Singer and ask him to support the bill to do away with racial 00:24:15.299 --> 00:24:17.476 discrimination. 00:24:17.509 --> 00:24:22.585 And if this fails after we've done all we possibly can do. We'll have to 00:24:22.618 --> 00:24:28.627 maybe get together and march on Governor Fannon and march on the Senate 00:24:28.660 --> 00:24:36.660 500 strong or more. And to let the world know that we want our rights. We 00:24:36.969 --> 00:24:43.795 want all of our rights. We want them here in Phoenix. 00:24:43.828 --> 00:24:46.867 And the only way we're going to get our rights is that we, like I said, we 00:24:46.900 --> 00:24:50.726 must do something together. 00:24:50.759 --> 00:24:57.486 Last week over 38 persons came by and joined the NAACP. 00:24:57.519 --> 00:25:03.467 But we have something like 5000 more who need to come in and join with us. 00:25:03.500 --> 00:25:07.226 Can I ask you this Sunday morning. 00:25:07.259 --> 00:25:12.045 If you haven't joined the NAACP, speak your pastor. 00:25:12.078 --> 00:25:17.387 And tell him that you want to become a member and and give him the $2. I 00:25:17.420 --> 00:25:23.906 come by the ranksdale mortuary, 1100 East Jefferson Street. by the guy 00:25:23.939 --> 00:25:29.726 Life Insurance building in 11:40 East Washington. And we will take your 00:25:29.759 --> 00:25:35.986 membership in. And join the hundreds who are joining up with us because we 00:25:36.019 --> 00:25:42.397 must stay together. And let me remind you what Paul said one more time. 00:25:42.430 --> 00:25:47.696 When he was asked what can man do to help himself. 00:25:47.729 --> 00:25:50.535 And that Paul 00:25:50.568 --> 00:25:57.206 Tell us he that provideth not for his own. And especially those of his own 00:25:57.239 --> 00:26:02.305 household is worse than an infidel. 00:26:02.338 --> 00:26:09.726 Let us listen As the son of Martin singers rang.

And we know that where there's no struggle, there's no 00:27:10.699 --> 00:27:17.285 advancement. We also realize that power concedes nothing without a demand. 00:27:17.318 --> 00:27:21.486 And we solicit this Sunday morning your prayers because we have problems 00:27:21.519 --> 00:27:26.847 and all around us things are happening to us, we do not understand.
