Preface

THE production of books aboutor by the Negro has increased to such an extent that it has been deemed feasible to limit th,',7inth %In of the Negro booklist to the Negro in the UnitedStates. Although much of past history is still included, the listas a whole is heavily weighted on the side of current situations, problems, and solutions.So that the list might be as up-to-date as possible, titles which were published during the early months of 1965, and whichwere available to the selection committee for examination, have been included. A supplement is planned forcoverage of subsequent publications. Earlier editions of The Negro;a List of Significant Books included books on Africa. To fill the gap created by the omission of thisarea in the Ninth Edition, a reN Ision of the Africa issue of Branch Library BookNews (Febru- ary, 1961 ) is planned for the near future. The titles included in The Negro in the UnitedStates are available in the circulating collections ofmany of the branches of The New York Public Library located throughout Manhattan, The Bronx, and Staten Island.Spe- cial attention is called to the circulating collectionof the Countee Cullen Regional Branch and, for referenceuse, the Schomburg Collection of Negro Literature and History, and the Reference Departmentin the Central Build- ing. Titles marked with an asterisk (*)are listed in current or earlier eak- lions of Books for the Teen Age,an annual list prepared by the Committee on Books for Young Adults of The New York Public Library.

THEY HAVE SPOKEN

Rarely in any time doesan issue lay bare the secret heart of America itself. Rarelyare we met with a challenge, not toour growth or abundance, or our welfareor our security, but rather to the values and thepurposes and the meaning of our beloved nation. The issue of equal rights forAmerican Negroes is suchan issue. And shouldwe defeat every enemy, and shouldwe double our wealth andconquer the stars, and still be unequal to thisissue, then we will. have failedas a people and as a nation. For, with a countryas with a person, "What is a man profited if he shall gain the whole world, and lose hisown soul?"

PRESIDENT LYNDON B. JOHNSON To Joint Session of Congress March 15, 1965

I ask you to look into your hearts...for the one plain, proud, and priceless quality that unitesus all as Americans; a sense of justice. ...justice requires us to insure the blessings ofliberty for all Americans and their posterity not merely for reasons ofeco- nomic efficiency, world diplomacy, and domestictranquillity but above all, because it is right.
