THE ATLANTA INQUIRER
BIGGER THAN
A HAMBURGER
By ELLA J. BAKER
(Miss Baker is executive director of the Southern Christian
Leadership Conference, which issued the call for the Student
Leadership Conference on Non-violent Resistance to Segrega
tion. This was held at Shaw University, Raleigh, N. C., on Easter
weekend with 142 students from the South and 30 from the
North in attendance. A sizeable delegation of white students
joined the young Negro leaders for the conference).
RALEIGH, N. C.—The Stu
dent Leadership Conference
rent sit-ins and other demon
made it crystal clear that cur
strations are concerned with
something much bigger than a
hamburger or even a giant
sized coke.
Whatever may be the differ
ences in approach to their goal,
the Negro and white students,
North and South, are seeking
to rid America of the scourge
of racial segregation and dis
crimination — not only at lunch
counters, but in every aspect of
life.
In reports, casual conversa
tions, discussion groups, and
speeches, the sense and the
spirit of the following statement
that appeared in the initial
newsletter of the students at
Barber-Scotia College, Concord,
N. C., were re-echoed time and
again:
“VVe want the world to know
that we no longer accept the
inferior position to second-class
citizenship. We are willing to go
to jail, be ridiculed, spat upon
and even suffer physical vio
lence to obtain First Class Citi
zenship.”
By the large, this feeling that
they have a destined date with
freedom, was not limited to a
drive for personal freedom, or
even freedom for the Negro in
the South. Repeatedly it was
emphasized that the movement
was concerned with the moral
implications of racial discrimi-

nation for the “whole world”
and the “Human Race.”
It was further evident that
desire for supportive coopera
tion from adult leaders and the
adult community was also tem
pered by apprehension that
adults might try to “capture”
the student movement. The stu
dents showed willingness to be
met on the basis of equality,
but wer^ intolerant of anything
that smacked of manipulation
or domination.
This inclination toward
group-centered leadership,
rather than toward a leader
centered group pattern of or
ganization was refreshing in
deed to those of theolder group
who bear the scars of the battle,
the frustrations and the disil
lusionment that come when the
prophetic leader turns out to
have heavy feet of clay.
However hopeful might be
the signs in the direction of
group-centeredness, the fact
that many schools and com
munities, especially in the
South, have not provided ade
quate experience for young
Negroes to assume initiative
and think and act independ
ently accentuated the need for
guarding the student movement
against well-meaning, but nev
ertheless unhealthy, over-pm
tectiveness.
