1:26:00
Now, I don't know how much you folks
know about our organization.
1:26:06
It's one of those community
organizations set up to look after...
1:26:11
...you know, things like...
1:26:13
...block upkeep and
special projects and...
1:26:18
Then we also have what we call our
New Neighbors Orientation Committee.
1:26:22
Yes. And what do they do?
1:26:26
Well, they...
1:26:28
Well, it's what you might call
a sort of welcoming committee, I guess.
1:26:33
I mean, they...
No, we...
1:26:36
Well, I'm chairman of the committee.
1:26:39
I go around and see the new people
who move into the neighborhood...
1:26:42
...and give them the lowdown on the way
we do things in Clybourne Park.
1:26:46
But then...
1:26:49
And then we have the category of
what the association calls...
1:26:52
...Special Community Problems.
1:26:54
- And what are some of those?
- Be quiet. Let the gentleman talk!
1:27:02
I'm sure that you people must be
aware of some of the incidents...
1:27:06
...that have happened in various parts
of the city when...
1:27:10
...colored people have moved
into certain areas.
1:27:14
Because we have what
I think is going to be...
1:27:17
...a unique type of organization
in American community life.
1:27:21
Not only do we deplore
that kind of thing...
1:27:23
...but we're doing
something about it.
1:27:27
Now, we feel that...
1:27:29
We feel that most of the trouble
in this world...
1:27:32
...when you come right down to it...
1:27:34
...most of the trouble exists because
people don't sit down and talk.
1:27:38
You can say that again, mister.
1:27:40
That we don't try hard enough
in this world...
1:27:42
...to understand the other fellow's
problems, his point of view.
1:27:45
Now that's the truth.
1:27:47
Well, you see, our community
is made up of people...
1:27:50
...who've worked hard
as the dickens...
1:27:52
...to build up that little community.
1:27:54
Now, we're not rich or fancy people.
1:27:58
I mean, we're just hard-working,
honest people...
